This is all incredible but not surprising. I thought I'd throw in my experience with the insanities of insurance (Medicare specifically). Although I'm so grateful to have insurance, they need to cut out waste.
So for Medicare to cover my insulin pump supplies, I MUST see my endo 4 times a year, when I usually only went once or twice. So they are paying for 2-3 extra and unnecessary appointments per year. Then they only allow me to get a months worth of supplies at a time, which are shipped UPS 3 day which I'm sure isn't cheap. So that's 12 separate shipments, when before I maybe got 3 or 4 a year. IT MAKES NOT SENSE!!! (Pulls hair out)
