Crazy Insurance Rules

Tell me how this makes sense:

My OB/Gyn is "in network" for my insurance, but the only hospital at which she practices is not.

What the hell?

  1. That really doesn't surprise me. They do that shit on purpose.

  2. I guess it doesn't help that I work so far from home. My county isn't actually in the insurance company's "service area," so I suppose I'm lucky there are even covered doctors here.

    The local hospital is about five minutes from our house, and the nearest "in network" hospital is about 30 minutes away.

    Now, doctors aside, which one do you think I'd rather have a baby in? Or go to in an emergency?

    Let me tell you a little something else about those two hospitals.

    Shrike's sister works at the 30-minute-away one, yet she chose to have both her babies here. What's that tell you>

  3. It tells me she didn't want her co-workers to see her cha-cha!
