About This Author
I am a 40 year old married mother of two teenage boys. I live for writing, especially romance. Love the happily ever after scenerio. The best thing about writing for me is the ability to lose yourself in your work, and feel as if you've accomplished something great. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters.

Bard's Hall, June 27, entry 6 - Insurance is a scam
You know, I've always known medical insurance was a scam. But I swear, how insanely big of a racket it is, definitely is eye opening.
For the torn ligament in my finger, I wear two, what they tetm, buddy bands, little velcro straps that keep my pinky and ring finger snug together. I think it's been about eight weeks now.
With the weather hitting 100 degrees lately, the bands get sweaty, and icky, and I hate them! Plus, they get stretched out as my fingers shrink from the swelling going down.
Imagine my surprise when the bill arrives for two bands, to the tune of $80  .The fact that my insurance covered half of that boggles my damn mind.
I needed extras and bought six of them off Amazon for less than $7. Someone seriously needs to tell me why I need to fork over another $40 dollars to cover those disgusting mark up.
It is absolutely ridiculous.
Writing this on my phone just reminded me that I have to call my insurance for a bill, for an office and Doctor that I've never been to.
This ought to be a fun conversation!
