Quoth rerant View PostAnd to JuniorMintz:
It wasn't me who was bothered by the forms (although I didn't expect to have to fill them out) but rather it was my doctor. Though to be completely honest she seemed to be aggravated with the receptionists as a whole more so than the process, so something tells me they're constantly making mistakes and/or treating her patients poorly."This is the first time I've seen you look ugly, and that makes me happy!"

Quoth BookstoreEscapee View PostIt's sad insurance covers drugs for men to have sex but not for women to not get pregnant from the men being able to have sex.
It's been a well-researched fact that women who have mastectomies do significantly better if they have a full 2 days of hospital stay after the surgery, but most insurance still refuses to pay for more than 1 day of recovery. This has been known for years.
But it took less than a year for them to approve to pay for a drug that has no physical benefit just so men could feel better about themselves.
Women's medicine in the US is often an afterthought.

Here in South Africa, there was a lawsuit against Discovery (medical aid) by a number of breast cancer sufferers because they wouldn't pay for the potentially-life saving drug Herceptin.
Herceptin is a new miracle drug that prevents a certain type of breast cancer (so called HER2+) from reoccurring hence it is very expensive and treatment is for one full year every 3 weeks at a total cost of R 450,000.
