Conditions that can lead to a life threatening situation should, in my mind, be addressed and covered. I am talking about subsidizing health insurance in an HMO type structure whereby receipients get free or next to free medical services for sniffles, colds or issues of convenience. Eisboch Do most people, even with HMOs, see the doctor for sniffles or colds? I'm not sure what "issues of convenience" are. My doctor wants to see me every four months. I usually have nothing to report to him in terms of aches, pains, ailments, but he checks me over anyway, and has blood drawn. Prior to flu season, I pop by his office for the nurse to give me the "shot." I see my ophthalmologist once a year for an eye exam. Are these "issues of convenience"? Yes. I won't bore you again with the tale or details, but I did a survey once that proved that it would have been less costly for my (former) company and for the employees if I had simply paid for or re-impursed the cost of the services that you described to the employees and had a Major Medical insurance plan to cover serious, catasrophic or life threatening injuries or illness. Unfortunately, the state of MA nor the Insurance companies would allow such a thing. Eisboch "would *not* allow" |
