Talking about Health Insurance with the Doctor
By vfto on Jul 16, 2008 in Health
I recently experienced a rather interesting conversation that started out as awkward but turned out to be really informative. I was at my doctor’s office doing my annual check-up when the receptionist pointed out that there had been some problems with my Fort Lauderdale health insurance plan. I was embarrassed at first because I thought that I’d done something that caused the problem but it turned out that the issue was on the health insurance FL end of the situation.
I mentioned the situation to my doctor during the check-up when making small talk. It felt a little bit weird at first. After all, the health insurance is how the doctor gets paid so admitting that there was a problem could make it seem that I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to pay her. However, my doctor is a great lady and she didn’t take it that way at all.
In fact, it turns out that she has a really strong opinion on health insurance because she went for a long time without a good health insurance company. She now knows a lot about the industry and was able to give me a lot of insight into Florida group health insurance and individual insurance plans. I ended up switching to a better company based on her recommendation and the appointments have gone smoothly ever since!
