Ok, I'm bad about going to the dentist, I acknowledge that. So of it is because my insurance company is impossible to deal with. Anyway, this tooth is in bad shape, but has never really hurt, until last night. couldn't get to sleep for ages. So I checked and hey! There's a dentist near me that's open on Saturdays and takes my insurance! Yay!
I call them. Turns out since I have an HMO plan I am supposed to be assigned to an office: if it isn't their office, my insurance won't pay the claim. Can't afford that. So I call my insurance to try to figure out what dentist I'm assigned to and if I can get it switched...and after spending 10 minutes navigating their phone menus, I find out that they have no reps to talk to on Saturdays. *cries* And their website is less than helpful in that regard. (I've been trying to get them to send me a new ID card for 2 years, and they keep not doing it. Stupid Anthem.)
Anyone have a clue about how to navigate this maze?
