How I deal with my commercial health insurance policy…
- I know my coverage and benefit
- I know my cost, deductibles, premiums, out of pocket max, everything!
- I check online for my explanation of benefits (EOB)
- I check my EOB with my providers summary of monthly charges
- I call at least once a month to have claims reprocessed, explained, or justified
- I ask for a supervisor often
- I make copies of everything
- I fax (old school but cheap and you have a receipt of delivery)
- I cuss at them over the phone, just because it makes me feel better
- I ask for support services, treatment plan nurse or employee support programs
