Insurance

When Tony and I first decided to get married we pretty much knew we would probably need a specialist to have a baby, due to our (mostly mine) ages. Tony being a vet had insurance through the VA only (no help with fertility there) plus he works for a reliogus entity (no help there either). I on the other had was paying top dollars for the top plan of the three offered by the company, only to discover that the bottom two are the only ones that include any fertility. Can't change the plan until October (seven months away!!!) unless you get married and add your spouse. Adding Tony and going to the lower plan actually still cost less than the plan I was on and now we had some fertility benefits.

The "McDonalds" Fertility we were at first really had their stuff together when it was time to get paid. This second one doesn't. I still love my Doc but his support staff has much to be desired.

My insurance company says I must have a preapproval by a certain company and order my meds from a certain pharmacy. The RE nurse keeps calling somebody else and they call me wanting $3164.25!!! I then call the RE and tell her the proceedure for which she gives me major attitude "we have done this before". Then I get another call for $3164.25.

Now today I have to see her to teach me how to give myself the Gonal F shot with the pen. This is going to be fun.
