HMO suckage, but I'm used to it.

scottobearApparently, my insurance changed over at the top of the month, and so I get to go to a new primary care physician tomorrow in order to get a referral to go to my specialist again. I found this out at my specialist's... who would not see me until that got done. Plus, they would like to bill me for the last month rather than the insurance company.
Um, no. I told them to send the bill to my old insurance company, as the referrals were still valid at the time. I don't think that there will be too much trouble
So, tomorrow, I get to see my new Primary Doc at 1pm. (It's for 1:30, but they'll need me a bit early to do all that paperwork (that I feel they could get from the insurance company, too... but whatever. Standards and procedures, and all that.) The HMO insurance industry has a rectally inserted thumb...at least as far as customer service is concerned.
