I'm not quite sure why you would pay the deductible before a accident. Makes as much sense as paying your auto insurance deductible before you have a crash. I guess the next question would be, if you have no claims, do you get that money back with interest? I guess they think if they file a...

You might be right, but I am hoping he goes the stretch. :p

Is this for "cargo" insurance or actual insurance on the van? If you haven't had a claim, why would you pay the deductible on a policy if nothing has happened? Confused?

What is a deductible buy back?

Mind as well call it what it is. "Fees" are a profit centers for most carriers. What creates a adversarial relationship with drivers is the lack of transparency with these fees. Paying $5.00 to get your own money deposited is silly. Many carriers are making money on QC, banking, various...

Have to admit, it is entertaining having him in the race.

I would agree with you prior to Ocare. Since they are suppose to have insurance, free or otherwise, no need to use taxpayer money twice. If it is a viable service, they can receive donations to operate like other religious medical places do.

I didn't read anything in to it either way at the time.

It is a family clinic not a hospital. As for referrals, they are advised to contact their insurance provider because they would provide options verses what their plan dictates. Same with someone who has no insurance. They would have to contact the county health services. No idea whether...

Pregnancy counseling yes, abortions no. Transparent accounting procedures. Especially when relying on government support. If a for profit clinic used what they do, the IRS would have a field day. Only for existing patients or specific referrals. Ocare changed that with reduced reimbursements...

True. But by their own admission, not all provide that service. Not sure what that ratio is? "Market share" is right. lol

The combination of services makes what they provide open to interpretation. That is done by design. Since we have a family medical clinic, most numbers I hear are somewhere between 20 and 25 percent. Not the three percent. They may get closer to some hard numbers if they investigate what they...

If they are poor, their insurance is free or pretty close. That was the whole point of Obamacare. Preventive services are available without paying the deductible. Not really convinced people are dying because there isn't a PP nearby. They can still exist, but I don't think they need taxpayer...

You were more ambitious in putting the numbers out there. Couldn't do it on my phone. But it really is, "follow the money". lol:p

As demonstrated by a few responses I see, some don't have that ability to be objective.

I don't think you would have to know "someone on the inside". It is simple, without taxpayer money, they say they couldn't operate. So they must be using it to perform abortions as that is their primary function. If not, we are way over paying for just medical services that are already covered...

What is a governor? Lol

John might have got the better end of that deal. :p

You mean someone referred OVM. lol. :D

We determine as like other carriers whether we run something or not and for how much. Not seeing a difference per se. As for being competitive, the large company can generally be as competitive just because of their volume. Have to remember that many of the small carriers live and die on the...
