Does anyone have a Primary Care Physician in NYC that takes AETNA health insurance?

We Answered:

Have you ever used the Aetna search engine? I have Aetna through my work and I used it to fins my new PCP and I love him. (I am in PA) Go to www.aetna.com and click on member services. You will have to set up an account, and then you can link your aetna plan onto the website. Once you have entered all of your information in (including your group id, etc.) you can use the website to search for all sorts of doctors that are covered under your plan.

Hope this helps!

What does university health insurance cover?

We Answered:

My insurance through school covers 100% of anything done at the student health center. I see a doctor there regularly, for diabetic reasons, and get a lot of lab work done - all covered.
They can do just about anything there at the health center, blood work, x-rays, annual exams, gyno stuff... and if you need to see a specialist, they will refer you - which is like being in network.
Outside of the health center, I have a $200 deductible per semester. In the last two years, I've used my insurance extensively - and haven't paid anything out of pocket other than that deductible.
Prescriptions are not covered...
I was not happy in the beginning that I was required to keep the school insurance, I thought it was a waste of money - but now, I would certainly recommend it to everyone. Use it!
Good luck

Can your health insurance cover a hospital without covering the attending physician the hospital assigned?

We Answered:

The short answer is: yes, they can, and they do.

Hospitals, doctors that have hospital privileges, and the labs in the hospital are all considered separate entities and bill separately. Not all of them participate in every health insurance plan.

Now, in your case, you have grounds to appeal. Since you were admitted to the hospital on an emergent basis and not via your own personal physician, therefore having no say in which doctors treated you, I suggest you first call the the provider that is billing you and let them know you're going to appeal it with your insurance company and that you will keep them informed, and ask if you can count on them to help if you need it. (They will probably agree - they want to get paid, and they generally don't care by whom.) Then call member services at your health insurance company and explain the circumstances of your hospitalization and ask them to reconsider the claim, if they can not, ask them how you can appeal it - including the contact name and address and a phone number if it can not be accessed by member services. You might have to jump thru some hoops for this - insurance companies count on that - but if you're persistant, you should win. (Enlist the help of your regular physician too! They can often provide documentation of medical necessity.)

Good luck!
