True that auntie EM has retained the Aetna Medicare for retirees and the like, but this move by BC Texas is a sign of their general trend for low-level cheap providers.
MD Anderson is one of the best in Texas if not the country.
But you'll be cured of that benzene-related lymphoma by your local 'doc-in-a-box' just as well. Telemedicine works.
Not relevant.
This is BCBS Medicare Advantage.
Which EM does not have (at least yet)
@kkq LoL what f’n billions? The industry has been stagnant for more than a decade. Flat salaries, layoffs, hiring freezes, outsourcing, offshoring, zero investment in new technologies, buggy/antiquated software…we could go on for a long time.
Get it into your heads once and for all that the good old days are never coming back.
With the cancer we will get from working around chemicals and the baytown complex we will need good cancer care.
We all knew that the Executive decision to change from AETNA to BCBS was not made to improve employee benefits, and this is just more proof.
This is just more of KM chasing pennies because she has no clue about the oil industry and how to chase billion$.
Is this proof of decline in benefits? Other than people's perspective...
But is MDA in network for our new PPO plan?
Wow! Simply wow!
