Guest guest Posted August 9, 2000 Report Share Posted August 9, 2000 Hi All I wonder if someone could please explain to me the way the Health Insurance operates in America? For example, do you take out your own insurance policy? Or are you locked in to a health plan via your Company, that you or partner work for? How long does the policy last for? 1,2,3 years? Once the policy expires, do you have to change Doctors, Rheumatologists, for the next policy? If so, are your medical records transferred to the next Rheumatologist, or do you start again from scratch? I get the impression that you are ONLY allowed so many visits to the Rheumatologist per year, paid for by the Policy. If you then need an emergency appointment, do you pay yourself? I am hoping someone will be able to explain this system to me. Love and God Bless Gillian A friend is, as it were, a second self. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
