Thanks

My only experience with LifeWise is on the receiving end; I see patients who have this insurance and, if memory serves, they pay me almost on time.

All I can tell you is BCBS seems to suck a little less than other insurances. Providence Health Plan’s formulary is too restrictive for my tastes. And don’t, I repeat DON’T get Kaiser-Permanente. You’ll get better health care from a learning-disabled witch doctor in a back alley than you will from K-P.

“learning-disabled witch doctor”. What a great image. :sunglasses:
