Our son, now age 4, was born with 85% hearing loss in both ears. He has speech therapy and requires hearing aids. Recently, he has worn out the clear ear molds and our audiologist said they would be about $75 for new molds. We called our insurance and they told us the molds would not be covered, however, if the molds were ordered with new hearing aids, they would be covered. And since there is no deductible, we will put in an order for the top of the line hearing aids. I love it! The insurance company would rather pay $3,000+ for new aids than to pay $75 for new molds.
Anyone else see that as crazy?
99% of insurance plans other than medicaid don't pay for hearing aids. You must have VERY generous insurance coverage. Not to mention, $3000 for a pair of hearing aids is definitely not top of the line.
Sooner or later, people will realize the military spending that we have is asinine. Then, and only then will the people of this country take back its government, or create a new one.
Thats like blaming Rich folks for taking tax cuts, or poor people for taking welfare.
Use all you can get legally, thats smart. I don't think I'm going to change the mind of the "super rich" making over a million a year that they should pay more taxes. Hell I'd soak everything for all I can get. But that doesn't stop me from trying to educate the other 99% of us how stupid it is to continue those tax cuts.
Everyone should do whatever they can to actively resist the government by taking every red cent you possibly can from it.
The government is ME, YOU, and everyone else. It's HIS kid, let HIM pay for it!!! Or don't have em to begin with.

It's under FEHB. I'm a postal worker. We get decent insurance.
And the price was for Siemens hearing aids for children. Just quoting the price the audiologist told us.
It is your fault. You had the kid, you bare the brunt of the costs, associated with said kid. Don't force my insurance premiums to go up, because you are a deadbeat, cheapskate. Take care of YOUR responsibility.

Sooner or later, the military will be cut. It simply doesn't matter, the debt. The economy will collapse one way or another, and then the country with the worlds largest military will either be forced to downsize, or they'll start a war and there is nothing we can do about it.
I try to change minds, its next to impossible so I accept the reality that my effort is pointless, but it makes me feel better.
The sooner the federal government collapses its debt the sooner we can start rebuilding things.
I hate it for ya'! I tell you what...send my the $75 and I will pay it.
Typical unionite!
"Why should I pay for anything!?"
