Phew!! That was a close one. My Cobra insurance was almost cancelled! How much of a hellish experience would that have been if it did happen. Here is the story. I normally pay my Cobra insurance a month in advance. So in April, I send a check for May, etc. For some odd reason, I [...]

My test strips woes of the last month or so have been well documented between my blog and Twitter. The CVS fiasco being the worst part of it. The chapter has ended, but it seems that the book is continuing. Let me explain. I contacted Aetna RX Home Delivery because I have to use them because [...] I am sure you all know exactly what I am talking about just from reading the headline of the post. If you don’t, then I will explain. The insurance company looks at your different type of supplies in two main categories, prescription and durable medical equipment. The way your insurance company defines them is most [...] After having Cobra for 3 months, and not even knowing it, I have finally figured it all out. I was so confused about the whole situation and couldn’t get a clear answer for a while. I called Ceridian Benefits, who runs the Cobra program to get some answers.

Well I have one for somebody to figure out. The average amount of time in a lifetime that a diabetic waits on hold with an insurance company. I’m guessing I can save pretty much half of my life this [...] I can’t believe that today is already the first day of December. How crazy is that? I am so glad that NaBloPoMo is over! Like I said, I’m still going to try and do it, but at least there isn’t any pressure to get a post done. Well, my diabetes has been talked about a [...] In a post I did earlier in the week, I explained that I was working a lot and not really sleeping at all. Well, along with that I have been working right through exercise time as well. My exercise has consisted of throwing footballs and doing a little jogging at football practice when I am [...] Well the Phillies are still alive and the Eagles kicked butt on Sunday. I have missed 3 Panthers hockey games now because I have had to stay home to watch the Phillies. As long as they win, I don’t really care. I received some good feedback on my post about diabetes being a disability and [...] |
