Everyone claimed that he could not get prescription glasses if his prescription was over a year old. Not even if he was paying for them himself instead of using insurance.<br /><br />No doubt some do-gooder passed a law.<br /><br />And people wonder why health care costs so much. People aren't even free to determine for themselves if their prescription needs updating or not.<br /><br />I wonder if it's at all related to the stupidity (and outstanding medical bill we have to pay) from when he had a melanoma on his lip. Instead of just removing it "just in case" it was cancerous, and then testing it, he had to get the tiny spot *biopsied* and then go back and get it removed. The cut for removal wasn't any larger, hardly, than the biopsy was. The *bandaid* sure wasn't any larger. But I suppose two trips to the doctor are better than one and the insurance company wouldn't pay for "just in case", but they would pay (at least part) of two separate procedures.<br /><br />It's insane.Synovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01311191981918160095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-24898165450048473282010-01-13T14:26:13.215-06:002010-01-13T14:26:13.215-06:00Vspurs...I am crabby today.

I lost a contact lens down the sink last night, and when I called my longtime eye doctor's office to order a replacement this morning they reminded me that since last year they have instituted a rule that I must come in and pay for a full Doctor's exam after one year from the last exam if I want a replacement lens. So it has been 50 weeks since the last exam. But they said that was so close to one year that I needed special permission to order the lens without the next eye exam paid for. This office now does lots of medicare/medicaide patients, and I expect that they are minimally paid for these and as a full paying patient that I have to pay More to make up for that. The squeeze is on everywhere folks.traditionalguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05706120413005530014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-1375797196521343762010-01-13T14:16:35.436-06:002010-01-13T14:16:35.436-06:00It's the sour cream container I forgot in the ...It's the sour cream container I forgot in the back of the fridge.GeorgeHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10736838055941100599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-15441724823175173322010-01-13T13:52:57.096-06:002010-01-13T13:52:57.096-06:00I find it totally disgusting to look at.
