I hope everyone understands after reading your post that the bad guy here is not the insurance company but the medical field. Try calling Shands in Gainesville for help
You are so right. Unless someone has actually gone through this they could never understand how horrible this situation is. I cannot for the life of me understand how a doctor who has sworn to care for us as fellow human beings can be so heartless. Everyone wants to blame the attornies. I will tell you now that without an attorney I would still be out there trying to find a doctor who would take me. Now, if that is what has to be, it has to be. No one really wants to sue anyone. I know I didn't but I also know I needed care. I have to have surgery on my hand and would have never found someone to do that without getting an attorney. I am not blaming the insurance company. I am blaming our medical field. My doctor back home couldn't believe what I am going through. It's easy to take a side when someone is not involved but should it happen to those who are so critical then it's a different story. I'm just wanting to let all the wonderful people out there in TV understand what is going on. I was blindsided and would have loved to have someone given me a heads up. It's so sad we learn by experience too much of the time. I'm grateful for TV Healthcare system to know they are on the wrong track. Just take care of yourselves, everyone. We deserve to be treated better. I also have to consider knee surgery and possible ankle, neck and shoulder issues. One thing at a time!
