Re: Getting HOSED by my health plan - anyone else?
I have medicare and AARP for my secondary ins. So far everything has been covered. This will be tested in April when I have to have all my scans done. It is scary as we have to do the tests and if we can't afford it and it is not covered, what do we do???
