Default PUP or PCP
I had PCP and it was fine. My internist quit PCP and went to PUP so I did as well. Since that time I have had a serious health problem and needed a miracle from my internist and neurologist to get my procedures done at Shands in Gainsville. Shands is not normally covered by PUP. We'll see how the rest plays out but I am seriously thinking about not taking any kind of a HMO when I can switch next January.
I have had three scans so far with my "affliction" at $200 a pop copays. I don't even know what the copays will be from my time in the hospital.
Any kind of insurance is fine if nothing happens to you.
