MEDICARE ADVANTAGE MINUTE: AETNA WILL PAY $118 MILLION TO RESOLVE MEDICARE ADVANTAGE UPCODING ALLEGATIONS. OF COURSE, THIS SEEMS LIKE A DROP IN THE BUCKET WHEN COMPARED TO THE $556 MILLION EXTRACTED FROM KAISER PERMANENTE FOR SIMILAR SHENNAGINS! AI CUSTOMER SERVICE PROBLEM RESOLUTION SUGGESTIONS WORKED OUT WELL FOR CHIP< BUT ALOMOST PROVOKED ANTI-AI SENTIMENTS FROM A CERTAIN LOYAL MLM LISTENER> BC/BS TEXAS RATE INCREASE HISTORY OVER A DOZEN YEARS DEMONSTRATES THE INCREASING EFFECTS OF MEDICAL HISTORY. THE ANNUAL ACROSS THE BOARD RATE INCREASES RANGE FROM 0% TO ALMOST 14%.. THIS IS WHERE YOU CAN HEAR MY REPEATED ERRONEOUS SUBSTITUTION OF PLAN G FOR HDG! MY MEDICARE GOOD DEED: AN 82 YEAR-OLD WOMAN IN KANSAS CITY HAD PLAN F WITH A PROMISED RATE INCREASE TO $380 PER MONTH. I SUGGESTED THAT SHE SWITCH TO AN HDG AT $77 PER MONTH. THE $303 MONTHLY SAVINGS ARE MUCH LARGER THAN THE HIGH DEDUCTIBLE FROM HDG. RESULT: SHE COMES OUT AHEAD IN BOTH THE BEST AND THE WORST CASE CIRCUMSTANCES! I TRIED TO PERFORM THE SAME FISAL MIRICLE FOR MIKE IN SOUTH CAROLINA BUT HIS HEALTH MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAR INDERWRITING, LEAVING HIM TRAPPED IN AN EXPENSIVE PLAN G. FINALLY, WE ENDED THE EPISODE WITH A ROUSING QUIZ IN WHICH THE STATES WERE RANKED IN TERMS OF THEIR WORK-FROM-HOME QUALIFICATIONS!
