Bills
Today I decided to unbury myself from the mountains of medical bills on my desk. We have insurance, yes. We do. It doesn't cover much. It doesn't help much. But it does help a little, and right now a little is better than nothing. The thing is, we aren't seeing results in G's treatment the way we (feel that we) should be after all this time. June first, he's set for chemo again. And I don't want to take him this time. Crazy thoughts... perhaps. So I sent records to Mayo Clinic in Rochester to get the ball rolling several months ago knowing that we'd need their expertise. We have referrals from his doctors, but insurance is denying that he's getting adequate care here in Utah. And the bills are rolling in from all directions. Bills for "reading" medical records. Yup, they can do that. Mayo Clinic bills to the tune of nearly $2,000 today. Just for their doctors to look at two images. Two. Images. And read them, apparently. Can I raise ...
