My husband is a Vietnam Vet and is 100% disabled. Anyway one of the benefits we get is that I receive Health Insurance called ChampaVa. It pays 80% of all my bills and we have never had any problems with it at all to date and all have to do is pay a $50.00 deductible. The other day I broke my leg. So I went to my bone Doctor who fixed a broken ankle several years ago and who I saw about 3 months ago about my knees. (Dr. Yates) Anyway we signed in and I had to fell out several papers and then for the first time after 5 years of using him they called us back into an office to advise us they No longer us ChampaVa. I was in a very lot of pain and sounded out with a few cuss words (Lord forgive me). Anyway we opt to see him if I had gone to the Hospital they would have sent me to him anyway for a cast if I needed one. Needless to say I broke the Fibula which is close to my knee. Plus it is close to a lot of nerves and that means I couldn't have a cast or anythint wraped around it so I have to stay about 3 to 4 weeks in bed. My point is that why would a doctor stop using Military benefits? I have never had a doctor tell me they don't us a Goverment Insurance. NOW my biggest worry is all the people who are going to recieve the the New Insurance, Obama is working on, and are they going to be turned down for using a Goverment Insurance? That was so unfair to me and a shock to my husband. I would hate to see the people turned down when they relly need the help. Why would a doctor any doctor turn down a Goverment Health Insurance?
Oh and why would they turn down any insurance that pays 80% of the bill? That is guarnteed money that the doctors get. It just doesn't make sense......
