F.A.Q about your Healthcare Plans and Doctor...
Since I just joined a HMO, how difficult will it be to choose the doctor I want? Just
slightly more difficult than choosing your parents. Your insurer will provide you
with a book listing all the doctors who were participating in the plan at the time
the information was gathered.
These doctors basically fall into two categories -- those who are no longer
accepting new patients, and those who will see you but are no longer part of the
plan. But, fortunately, there is a doctor who is in the plan accepting new patients.
And...he has an office just four hours away.
I have an 80/20 plan with a $200 deductible and a $2,000 yearly cap. My insurer
reimbursed the doctor for my out-patient surgery but I'd already paid my bill. What
should I do? You have two choices. Your doctor can sign the reimbursement check
over to you, or you can ask him to invest the money for you in one of those great
offers that only doctors and dentists hear about, like windmill farms or frog hatcheries.
What does HMO stand for? This is actually a variation of the phrase, "Hey, Moe" It's roots
go back to a concept pioneered by Doctor Moe Howard, (and his two assistant Curly and Larry)
who discovered that a patient could be made to forget about the pain in his foot if he was
poked hard enough in the eyes. Modern practice replaces the physical finger poke with
hi-tech equivalents such as voice mail and referral slips, but the result remains the same.
Do all diagnostic procedures require pre-certification? No. Only those you need.
What are pre-existing conditions? This is a phrase used by the grammatically challenged
when they want to talk about existing conditions. Unfortunately, we appear to be pre-stuck with it.
Well, can I get coverage for my pre-existing conditions? Of course, as long as they don't
require any treatment.
What happens if I want to try alternative forms of medicine? You'll need to find alternative
forms of payment.
What should I do if I get sick while traveling? Try sitting in a different part of the bus.
No, I mean what if I'm away from home and I get sick? You really shouldn't do that.
You'll have a hard time seeing your primary care physician.
It's best to wait until you return, and then get sick.
I think I need to see a specialist, but my doctor insists he can handle my problem. Can a
general practitioner really perform a heart transplant right in his office? Hard to say, but
considering that all you're out is the $10 co-payment, there's no harm giving him a shot at it.
What accounts for the largest portion of health care costs?
Doctors trying to recoup their investment losses.
Will health care be any different in the next century?
No, but if you call right now, you might get an appointment by then.
Smith goes to see his supervisor in the front office. "Boss," he says, "
we're doing some heavy house-cleaning at home tomorrow,
and my wife needs me to help with the attic and the garage, moving and hauling stuff."
"We're short-handed, Smith" the boss replies. "I can't give you the day off."
"Thanks, boss," says Smith "I knew I could count on you!"
An atheist was taking a walk through the woods, admiring all that the "accident
of evolution" had created. "What majestic trees! What a powerful river!
What beautiful animals!" he said to himself.
As he walked alongside the river he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him.
He turned to look and saw a 7-foot grizzly charging towards him. He ran as fast
as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder and saw that the bear was
closing in on him. He ran even faster, so scared that tears were coming to his eyes.
He looked over his shoulder again and the bear was even closer. His heart was
pumping frantically and he tried to run faster still. He tripped and fell to the ground.
He rolled over to pick himself up, but saw the bear... right on top of him... reaching
for him with the left paw and raising his right paw to strike him.
At that instant the atheist cried out "Oh my God!...."
Suddenly, time stopped. The bear froze in motion. The forest was ever so silent.
Even the river ceased to move. As a brilliant ray of light emerged from the sky and
shone upon the man, a powerful voice spoke to him, "You have denied my existence
for all of these years; you teach others that I do not exist and you credit creation
to a cosmic accident. Do you expect me to help you out of this predicament?
Am I to count you now as a believer?"
The atheist blinked directly into the light. "It would be hypocritical of me to convert
to a Christian after all these years, but could you instead make the bear a Christian?"
"Very well," said the voice from above. The bright light disappeared. All of a sudden,
life resumed around the man. The river ran again. The forest became alive once
more with the gentle sounds of nature.
The bear stirred. Slowly, he lowered his right paw, brought both paws together,
bowed his head and graciously spoke:
"Lord, for this food which I am about to receive, I am truly thankful."
One day God was looking down on Earth and saw all of the evil that was going on.
He decided to send an angel down to Earth to check it out so he called on a female
angel and sent her to Earth for a time.
When she returned she told God, "Yes it is bad on Earth. 95% are bad and about 5%
are good. Well, he thought for a moment and said,
"Maybe I had better send down a male angle to get both points of view. So God called
a male angel and sent him to Earth for a time. When the male angel returned he went
to God and told him "Yes, the Earth is in decline. 95% are bad and 5% are good."
God said this is not good. He decided to E-mail the 5% that were good and encourage
them, a little something to keep them going. Do you know what the E-mail said? Oh!
You didn't get one either? I wonder why...
Three vampires go into a bar. The bartender walks up to the first one and says,
"What can I get you?" The vampire says, "I want a pint of blood." The bartender
then asks the second vampire, and he too replies that he would like a pint of blood.
The bartender then asks the third vampire for his drink order. The vampire says,
"I want a pint of plasma." The bartender thinks for a minute and says,
"Let me see if I've got this right. That's two bloods and a blood light?"

teach that person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks.

Terrorists--most of them came here legally, but they hung around on these expired visas,
some for as long as 10-15 years. Now, compare that to Blockbuster; you are two days
late with a video and those people are all over you.
Let's put Blockbuster in charge of immigration.
