tony - definitely going to do the negotiating route - fortunately I have a friend that runs the billing dept at the hospital and she has helped in the past with that route
baddog -
and give a big hug to goodgirl for me
over38 - yeah - I went that route a few years back and they wanted more than the regular ins co's - its a big racket
pussyluver - in 52 years I dont think I ever asked for a handout - and I agree that although I really do have a good income from the biz (but ya kinda get used to things and set your bills at that rate) - there are some that think it grows on trees in this biz - my experience since I began with BBS's back in the 80s was you either worked your ass off and made a good living - or you got lucky and made a huge killing(and most of those put it up their nose) - or you talked about working and convinced everyone you were a pimp - and lived off everyone else - I chose the hard work ave.
And to add to the fun - I just put a new post up for a bunch of blog domains -
