Insurance is a B%^#H!!!

I'm not going to rehash too much, but the ortho practice has banned me.  Seriously?!?  Because of the dispute with the PT charges.  Everything else is paid in full at the time of services ($2000 plus).  No appointments, no patient portal for records.  I requested the MRI report so it'll be interesting to see what happens (I know this'll be a fight and that isn't right since the MRI is paid in full).  All the services are bundled under this group.  I have an appointment in a few weeks with a new ortho practice.  The lengths I've gone to resolve this and there is nothing else I can do.  Both sides say I SHOULD owe nothing, but the billing codes aren't matching.  This is a in-network practice.  Geez.  What a scam.  Oh, and we have new insurance so I'm sure the old insurance company gives even less shits about this now.

Back is still troubled and I got my period yesterday.  Fun and more fun.  

I have a woods walk with a friend today.  My back feels better when I move around.  Sitting is difficult.  The worst part will be the car ride, but it's only 20 minutes away.  Not sure about the bathroom status and that might be a problem this morning if my monthly revs up.  But I'm going.

I did more dot painting to clear my head after the medical hurdles.  It's fun and I'm getting better -- watched a video on using the dot tools.





I'd like to start planting seeds and lite gardening this afternoon, but I need to be careful with my back.  Especially now when I have no ortho relief option.  Today is set to be sunny and warm -- perfect day for planting.

Okay, enough at the computer again -- sitting hurts.  Later gators.
