Yes, the only problem I had was that the underwriters couldn't get their people straight. I would get calls from 3 or 4 people representing the same company and got concerned.
I've been so busy updating my insurance files for the second time this year, ( did it at end of February) that I am just worn out.
There is a surprising twist in that the push to get everyone health care was cockblocked when Sen. Kennedy got busted for driving drunk. What an asshole. Here he was on the cusp of solving the problem and mysteriously he ends up busted for drunk driving etc. A real loss for the downtrodden.
Insurance is the most heavily regulated industry we have. It amazes me that smaller countries like Norway and some Islamic countries have health care. Makes you wonder who is really representing us.
