I have been less than impressed with our Blue Cross PPO plan. The plan allows us to carry Kris on the insurance while he is in college until age 23 or until he graduates from college, whichever comes first. Otherwise he would have lost his coverage when he turned 18. He is 21 now, and for the last three years we have filled out and signed the document required to verify that he is a full time college student. And every year they have dropped him off the insurance until we get denials for his health care expenses until Tom calls them up and reminds them that we certified that he is in college and eligible for coverage.
My biggest hassle has been getting the PPO to pay for minor GYN surgery I had at the end of April. St Elizabeth Place still hasn't been paid and I had to contact our Health Care Advocate to try to get Blue Cross to get off the dime and process the claim. It's just one more thing during a very hectic summer to stress us out.

Sigh.
