President Obama Healthcare Law Goes Into Effect Feb15Th

[Buck52]

Anyone have any suggestions about a reasonable health care provider?

We are trying to find a good reasonable insurance provider for my spouse she is 60 and does not qualify for Medicare, & I will just trust & use the VA for my health care

My spouse has ChampVA but we found most health care providers will not accept ChampVA as primary insurance.

We check out a healthcare provider '' Baylor Health Care'' here in Dallas and they told us that they do not accept ChampVA, Although they accept medicare/medicade!

We ask them to call ChampVA about electronic billing but the lady said there contratact aggrement says we have to have a second insurance with ChampVA, because on my spouse ChampVA-ID card it says Medicade?

So were asking if anyone knows what we can do? we can't afford a high premium! anything over 100 bucks month.

We have to be careful because so many health providers have insurance at low rates but most wont cover my spouse health conditions HBP & Fibro and degenerative bone desease as well as ostoperoisis and Arthritis.

Thanks for your help.

They told you a load of crap. Have CHampVA call them. There is also a form you can take to the provide that explains ChampVA..

My wife found a Dr that will take ChampVA as primary insurance..ChampVA Pays 75% and she pays 25%.

keep VA PCP for her meds only.

so this will help 100% until she can get SSDI .

Thanks Everyone we both appreciate all your help.
