Cali People - What insurance Carrrier do you Have?
Well yea, just wondering what people are using? I'm currently on Kaiser but heavily considering changing. I'm looking for a PPO Instead of an HMO, though i know the PPO's can be more expensive. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm gonna look into Blue Cross/Blue shield. Are there any other good ones you guys recommend to look into?
I dont feel like dealing with kaiser any longer and with my current health issues i'd rather pay a lil more and get better medical care.
Rick, what was that one you mentioned to me? i forget? hehe so i can call them up?

Thats pretty good. See thats what i'm looking for, somewhere i can just pick my own doctor, isntead of being assigned to one doctor in a hopsital that sees a million patients.
Do you have it through work or self?

When I was working full-time, I was covered by United Healthcare PPO.
While in college, I'm covered by Blue Shield PPO.
Both companies are excellent IMO. Comparable prescription coverage; minimal paperwork when you go through their pre-approved physicians & specialists.
I left Kaiser Permanente in '92 and I doubt I'll ever go back.
