Your best bet is your local Blue Cross and/or Blue Shield company, depending on where you live

Here in Idaho, we have both companies but a lot of other states have BC/BS combined. Our family has a policy through Regence Blue Shield that is $196 for my husband and three kids. It has a $25 office copay and it is a limited policy, which is 12 office visits a year and lab up to $300. It works great for us because we never got to the doctor, yet we have it if we need it.


I have an individual policy for major medical, $35 office copay, with our local Blue Cross and it is $59 a month for me and it has prescription coverage too. Not a bad deal. I think they are your best bet for decent coverage at a good price.


Blue Cross/Blue Shield or Mutual of Omaha - Which company pays off claims the best w/o hassle?

Spitting into the wind...SM
I usually don't get involved in these threads, but I'll go ahead and give it a try for once:

You're trying to battle the Information Revolution, immediate business profiteering, AND the need to provide needed medical services in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible.

It's NOT going to work any more than denying the Industrial Revolution (or the Agricultural or Iron Ages) did for those who tried then, and yes, plenty did--long dead now, names not recorded.

Sorry, but best advice is accept inevitable change and invest your time and energy in changing with it. These are fascinating and exciting times. Enjoy!
I hear ya on that one!! I know that if I ever wind up in this hospital
I will get a copy of my medical records and sue the pants off of the hospital for incompetency in care and it will fall back on the outsource transcription company because of their mistakes. I know I can sue the doctor individually, but he didn't make the mistakes that could have killed me - the transcription service would be making the mistakes!! $$$

Tips for getting a second wind on third shift
I work a split shift, and the second part goes to 2 a.m.  At about 11 p.m. or midnight, I hit the wall and I find that coffee or cola no longer works so well.  I was wondering if anyone could please share some tips to stay alert.  I need to learn how to get a second wind, but I also don't want to take so long a break that I am too tired to get back to work again... at that hour of the morning (after midnight), that would be really bad.  2 a.m. can be done, I just need and would so appreciate tips.  Thanks for your help.  Until then, I am going now to make coffee, though I am not sure how much that and the sugar in it will help right now!. Thanks again for your input.
patch
Thanks, will do that, have some left over from last time we tried to stop. It worked for my husband but not for me, but I am determined to stop now.
The patch is here...>>>>>

Havre, Montana, right now 17 below 0, wind chill is 37 below 0.
Now that is a bit nippy.
Lots of wind, rain from Alberto -

The year went by F-A-S-T!  Getting lots of bad weather from Alberto.  My satellite is going in and out - no internet, no work.  Think I'll take a nap!!


I used the nicotine patch -
the last time, my third (and final) quit, in November 1999. Before that I quit 2 other times, the longest was for 4 years, first time cold turkey, second time hypnosis.

My husband, age 61, smoked ever since he was 14 years old and never, ever even tried to quit. Six months ago, he quit cold turkey. Everyone is amazed.
No patch needed (sm)

When you save your document, save as a word 93-2003 document (.doc) rather than a 2007 document (.docx).  You can change it in your defaults.  Anyone with those prior versions can then open your documents without having to download anything.  :)


 


Climara low dose patch
The night sweats or hot flashes as they call them disturbed my sleep to the point I was useless during the day time.

I concluded that I would take these hormones as I simply had to work at top performance at my job and get things done around the house as well.

I'll deal with the "change" when I am retired and can walk around like a zombie. For now, I have to consider quality of life.

I tried several before Climara and though it is not on my formulary (50.00/month), I take it to live normally.

Now I realize why women my age sometimes can look ravaged.
Birth control patch...

I can't use birth control patches because I have migraines.  My doctor will only let me use certain birth control pills, and doesn't really want me using them, but anyway.....


When I worked in-house, patients seemed to like the patch.  I do know that the OB/GYN I worked for would not give the patch to overweight women because he said it was not as effective.  I would love to be able to use it, as I have trouble remembering to take my pills.


Anyone use the birth control patch?
Just researching a bit.  Do you like it?  Dislike it?  Any other info?  Thanks!
There is a patch to help eliminate those problems you
are experiencing with IE7.0.  Do you want a link to it?  Solved my IE7 problem, but then again, I rarely uses IE, but a different tabbed browser.
Why do you need a patch for express scribe? sm
I have Vista Home Ultimate and Express Scribe V 4.17 and have no problems whatsoever with the software at all.

As a matter of fact, I have had very few compatibility issues with Vista and ANY software I have tried to use -- except Transnet.
Microsoft has a patch for the browser

I feel bad for the people in Colorado and Wyoming who had so much wind and cold
weather.  This would be worse than a hurricane because if your roof blows off, you are in severe sub-0 temperatures with blowing snow.  No way to get any kind of help, and no way to stay warm. 
Lots of people are. Supposedly there is a patch that will
fix issues.  Got to MS website for info. 
budget busters...patch those holes! =) sm
No, you are NOT the only one...our pockets don't just have holes...
rising costs are ripping GAPING TEARS in our pockets =) But the fact that you're aware of it is a good thing...because you have the ability to mend those tears. I don't know if you use a budget, but if you don't it might help to create one. Having a financial plan and a budget are the "needle and thread" you need to keep your pockets full. (and I bet a LOT of people are just going into more debt rather than adjusting their spending to put a patch on those soaring fuel and food prices.) So...grab your needle and thread...and Happy Sewing...anyone for a Quilting Bee?! =)
Tough question, I love so may, Definitely Gone with the wind, can I count the 6 Star wars as one?

Blue ?

 HELP.  Has anybody heard of, or used a transcription platform called "Blue".....  (something...don't know what...).   I heard  somewhere(?) about this  "Blue..." system and apparently it's supposed to be super ?!!   Anybody have a clue?  .   TY in advance. 


Yes, I have the blue W and
I have typed a few reports using these steps and it does report, and no one is complaining about format so I guess it works.  Thanks a bunch for your help.
This doc keeps blowing wind/nose hairs/boogers out his nose - into the microsphone - and

sounds cool, huh?


I am physically nauseated!  3 hours of this.   gag


Add to that he can't say *our* alphabet so even though the hospital THINKS the docs are spelling the names, he wasted his time and mine. and when I get it wrong -- until I get the hospital to listen --- they will think I'm the *blank* one. (the board stopped me from posting/ said stup*d is not allowed here so you know what I'm saying - isn't that odd, I can't refer to my own self as that, hmmm)


He can't say NUMBERS.  Getting the drug doses is a joke.  Even the names of the drugs is like mystery science.


He says wrong months, days of the week.  If he's meaning to say May, he may say April.


If he's meaning to say 17 he may say 15.


You can hear the disdain in his voice when he dictates on women - I guess in his world there truly is no respect for women and you can really hear it when he's doing the dictation.


But the constant blowing - and clearing his throat - trying to dislodge that tickling nose hair I guess and slurping that yucky saliva has me just about ready to quit transcribing RIGHT NOW.  . 


Today I did make myself a promise.  I have been a good girl for 30+ years, held my anger deep in my ugly Wal-Mart pocketbooks.  When I retire in January and I know I will never have to turn on another computer or transcribe another medical dictation............I'm gonna go to the hospital ......maybe go sit in on GRAND ROUNDS FOR THE LAST TIME.......and BLAST THEM.  I'll do it or bust a gasket.  Just watch me.



I'd give anything for blue!

My carpeting is pink, not rose, but pink.  Apparently the previous owners to the person we bought our house from also had a pink stove and pink refrigerator with horrid looking kitchen wallpaper with big pink roses on it.


If that's not bad enough my bathroom is purple.  Lilacs on the wallpaper, purple tub, flush and sink. My daughter used to call it the "Barney bathroom."


Great neighborhood though.


blue smiley
what do the sad looking blue smiley faces mean beside some of the threads? 
The blue lines don't mean anything on the (sm)
digital tests.  Please visit the site peeonastick.com for more info.  That chick knows her pregnancy tests. 
Did you try right clicking on the blue bar?
There should be a place to check for an address bar.
"The Searchers", "Gone with the Wind", and "The Notebook" nm
.
If it rains hard, the wind blows hard and there are trees
nearby, it snows heavily it will mess up the signal.  The speed is not constant, sometimes as slow as dial-up, but at least still connected.  Many companies will not allow satellite. 
I'm planning on getting blue flu that week. nm

The audience would be the blue states,

aka, the ones who voted for Kerry.  I guarantee this movie will flop in the red states.  It's just one more attempt to push the gay agenda down our throats, making it more mainstream and palatable.  Won't happen in my state, Texas.  There is no such thing as a gay cowboy, that's an oxymoron. 


blue screen of death

I'm not sure if he went back to myspace a second time, I'll have to ask him.  Thanks for all the help.  I got it at Best Buy so I think I'll take it back there and see what they have to say also. I just don't want him away at college and have the darn thing crashing all the time.  It's not like you can just keep buying new ones at that price!



It still happens, mostly in blue collar jobs,
jobs,too, but not as much.  The employer tells them they are IC, but there are still many people out there who don't understand what that exactly means.  All they see is the extra money on their paycheck and they figure they'll worry about the taxes later, or don't fully understand the implications of being IC and don't know what a 1099 is.  Rack it up to immaturity or being naive, but it still happens.  The IRS has cracked down in recent years and has it's criteria for IC status, which doesn't apply to everyone (look at real estate agents, who can only work for one broker, but yet be an IC). It is beneficial to the employer because it saves the employer money on the SS 'match', plus savings on work comp insurance, unemployment taxes, liability insurance.  To me, being an IC means I don't have an employer - I have a customer and I must do the work they hired me to do or I will lose that customer to someone else.
And how do you know they weren't cussing up a blue

I second that, Wild Blue works well (sm)
for me. Tried Hughes a few years back and it was awful but maybe they are improved now. Have had Wildblue for 2 years and it works pretty good.
I don’t think he would just out of the blue suggest the medicine
Probably you made mention of having had the cervical cancer and that is where the dialogue started, right? As far as the x-ray, think that is being overplayed with that and fertility. Loads of children, females included, have x-rays when younger and do not lose their ability to have children. You sound like you are stressed out, mentioning this and that, xrays, miscarriages, sterility, etc., etc.
Possibly Wild Blue?....sm
I don't live in Oregon, but am in rural western Washington. I know a few MTs who use Wild Blue and are happy with it, so that would be my only suggestion.

I did want to say that I have been using satellite for about three years now (a small local company), have been on no less than 4 different MT platforms, and never had any problems. Yes, satellite can be susceptible to extreme weather...but if you're in a rural area you're about as likely to have your power go out anyway in extreme weather!
Best of luck.
I like blue, too. I'd do the walls a light beige or tan.

Our house here was icky when we first moved in.  Each room was a different color of pastel.  The mottled blue/gray/white/brown carpet was nasty because they had cats and dogs that evidently must have been locked in the bedrooms while the adults went to work.  The living room and hallway were blue-gray, the kitchen was yellow, laundry room peach, bathroom pink, and the bedrooms were lavendar, purple, and fuchsia.  Of course, the walls matched the carpet that matched the curtains.  Blechy.  We painted everything just a plain off white before we moved in.


My parents never deviated from plain white walls when I was growing up.  I'm just now learning to go wild with decorating.  In fact, we just got the funds to do our addition today, so we're adding another bedroom, an office for me, and a second bathroom, and enlarging the kitchen and utility rooms.  Fun, fun, fun, more household disruption for the next several months.  I just can't wait for the end result.


Wild Blue satellite internet

Anybody currently using Wild Blue satellite internet?  Any responses good or bad would be greatly appreciated.


The Forum Subject is missing in the blue box...
don't know what happened with my format. All forum subject is missing. Now, I can't switch from one subject to another without going back to home page
I've noticed that myself - if he said the oceans were blue, you'd all believe him

Blue Cross only pays $25 towards exam. sm
They have coverage for glasses up to $100 (what progressive trifocals cost under $100?)  Of course, my doc does not have the frames that come under the $100 program.  Natch

I also use WIld Blue and have no problems. Both my jobs are FTP, though.

GRAY TYPE MAKING ME BLUE
A gray type keeps showing up on documents I type in word.  If I highlight the whole document the font and style boxes in the toolbar will say the same font and style for the whole document but there is still a gray text here and there.  I think it might somehow be in an autotext I use.  I even remove all formatting when I am done and then reformat it but it will still show up occasionally after that.  It is driving me nuts.  Has anyone ever heard of a glitch like this?  I could try not using any autotext but I would lose way too much time.
