Ok Where to start? I got the letter and so did my wife. This whole mess started when a friend of mind that I used to work with moved down here. Having the same Insurance as me (Top of the line BC & BS) asked me what Doctors I used. I recommended, “Village Health Care”. A few days later he came back to me saying they would not take him. Wondering what was going on I went to the center near me to find out. I met with the person in charge. When I asked what was going on, how come my friend could not get in I was told that they were only taking new patience’s with United Health Care. The person tried for about 10 minutes to get me to drop my BC&BS and join United. I said to her, “My wife has had 14 major operations and I have never seen a bill why should I change” Finally the person gave up. I was then told that it would NOT affect me I was grandfathered in. Out of curiosity I asked why they were doing this. I was told that the Doctors requested it so they could be paid easier. My response was OH???? I was under the impression that the Doctors worked for you and you paid them. I got no response she walked away. Then the bomb shell hit I was kicked out, BUT I was told that if I had “TriCare for Life” I could stay I would be grandfathered. (I do but they did not know that) There is no way that I would trust them. They are out for themselves not the individual. I am looking forward to the survey and so is my wife. Shame because we both liked who we were seeing. Our new Doctors are good.
