Clusterfucked

Independence Blue Cross Building with Commerce Square reflection

I still don’t have a copy of my policy. They sent me a link to the online version, but my password doesn’t work and I’ve spent hours on the phone with Independence Blue Cross, just waiting for someone to answer:

Obamacare’s enrollment glitches might have been fixed long ago, but they’re still causing headaches at doctors’ offices and clinics around the country.

Patients and health care providers, in a series of interviews with The Huffington Post, complained that they are havingtrouble confirming that patients are insured, working out what their plans cover and figuring out which plans doctors will accept.

These complaints are signs that the Affordable Care Act, President Barack Obama’s signature health care reform law, is suffering growing pains more than six monthssince its insurance policies took effect.

  1. If you’d like to know how ObamaCare is suppose to work then take a look at Switzerland. That’s where our cobbled together health care system is being used. Switzerland has 7 and a half million people. Why anybody would believe that their health care system would work in the United States with 300 million people is a puzzle. Medicare for all.

  2. “Growing pains”? That’s just a bit of an imbalance between your nutrition and your rate of growth. The Obamacare issues are more like real flaws. The only question is whether they’re chickenpox or cystic fibrosis, i.e. curable or genetic.

    Medicare for All, indeed.

  3. “Obama’s signature health care reform law is suffering growing pains” is shorthand for “incompetent.”

  4. don’t call them, Tweet at them. I have found that their twitter customer service is fast an effective.
