(1,341 posts)Here in CA, weve had their PPO. My husband says theyre a common insurer for tech companies and supposedly in the Bay Area they might be ok. But here in Los Angeles, neither my gynecologist nor my pulmonologist would accept even the PPO. The pulmonologist said he once gave a patient a physical and was reimbursed $60 by UH. They also delay repayments to doctors and do all the other bad things that make physicians unwilling to work with them. I had to have an MRI, EEG, and ultrasound after a transient eschemic event (brain scare), and I was very lucky we were able to pay the multiple $1000+ bills. My large hospital-based system and associated primary care doctor did accept UH, which tells me something.
Of course, our experience has not been anywhere near as terrible as that of your family. Again, Im so sorry.
