How do I say this?

I

am

going

to

scream!

I called BCBS to find out why they aren't paying any of Ryan's surgery bills and found out our insurance deductible has doubled. Individual is now $5K and family is now $10K.

What. do. they. expect. us. to. do?

With Premiums of $133/wk, paying $300-400/mo. in prescription co-pays, and paying on medical bills until we meet $10,000. Monthly oxygen bills, infusion bills in the thousands for IV's a few times a year...

Is anyone else dealing with insurance like this?

This. is. wrong!

    P.S. I now have really good insurance but when I was with my former employer I did not. I had to pay $8k out of pocket to have Caitlin in 2004. We did not have that kind of money. I set-up payment plans and eventually paid it off. I think you're just going to have to set-up a long range payment plan with each provider...

  4. That is absolutely awful! I can't imagine having that thrown at me like that...I'm feeling so bad for you right now.

    I've been away from blogging for awhile and really enjoyed catching up on your posts tonight. What a wonderful walk down memory lane of the anniversary party with your parents and family. That sounds like a fabulous way to celebrate such an important event together!
