OH! I see, hmm, that is someone who wants the money to come in but doesn't want to pay out, huh? Health insurance companies are getting tougher and tougher. I'm sorry, kellymac! 🙁

did you have any investigations or treatment done on any skin lesions etc, that might be described as markers to future cancer problems?

I have blue cross/blue shield ppo but have found few providers that accept it. I use Dr braswell in the golden rock for my general practitioner. Only Kmart accepts it for prescriptions. So you're looking at a 4 hour wait for any new prescriptions. If its under $30 I just go to golden rock pharmacy. I use drugstore.com for things I need refills on much more convenient.

I have Blue cCross from a stateside plan and both doctors I have used it with on STX bill Blue Cross direct and I only have to pay the deductible.

When my wife had emergency surgery for a fractured ankle they paid all the expenses at the out of net work reimbursement rate.

My plan is set up as a PPO plan.

My prescription card through Caremark is taken by Golden Rock pharmacy , no different than stateside,

Jim
