Keep one, recycle two, keep one recycle two is what repeats in my head as I open those envelopes. Had the most frustrating conversation with them yesterday -- they made me re-submit a claim because it was for Abe, not Abraham and they don't have Abe in their system. She couldn't change it on her computer..I had to go and copy the dang thing and mail it out again. I read and file every personalized piece of paper from them in monthly folders by year because I often have to go back and reference them. And I'm complaining about the small stuff. 39% increases when the drugs Sophie needs aren't even on their formulary -- those are enormous problems.

There may be several in one envelope, which might suggest efficiency, but don't be fooled. If there are six claims in one envelope, I will get 18 pieces of paper. I get the multiple language explanations SIX times in one envelope. For every claim I keep one piece of paper and recycle two others.I suggest they allow us to access all of it online. Don't mail me any of this crap. I keep what is pertinent, just in case, and I have files full of these things that I don't know what to do with. Frankly there are so many that if I needed a specific one I would probably have to ask them to send it to me again.Maggie Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12578683202372124444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-11687516562118405532011-02-15T13:37:20.939-08:002011-02-15T13:37:20.939-08:00Waste waste waste.

I know it would be another ins company and still have the same hurdles, but perhaps you could save some money on premiums by seeing some other plan choices (maybe check out their drug formulary) and switch.Michele Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17030846420862437581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-69634066090131653522011-02-15T13:08:58.713-08:002011-02-15T13:08:58.713-08:00It would do the environment a favour too, save qui...It would do the environment a favour too, save quite a few trees!
