Odd I can't remember the last time the post office lost my mail.. TBH I don't think they ever have as long as I can remember..

However I can tell you that in the last 2 months I've been billed 3 times for health service, that I didn't use via CIGNA.

Luckily they seem easy to deal with on the phone, but had they fixed the problem the 1st or even the second time I probably wouldn't have had to deal with it yet a third. Here's to crossing my fingers they actually fixed it the 3rd time and I don't get billed yet a 4th.

When I had Aflax or what ever the fucking duck was as my insurance provider, I had to wait 2 months on my first check up because the insurance company purposely would send the wrong patient ID number to the doctors office, forcing me to either pay out of pocket or reschedule.

After talking to the billing person at the doc's office she told me that it was extremely common and it was a tactic used to get people discouraged so they would be too lazy to set up another appointment.

So far the US Post office has a much better track record than my last two private insurance providers.

Just to add a bit more I used MA state provided insurance when I first moved here and it was probably the easiest to use I've ever had and it was actually better coverage for a cheaper price than what I have now with CIGNA.
