After 33 days on a ventilator, my uncle died from Covid-related complications, including pneumonia and multiple infections, this morning. My aunt couldn’t say goodbye in person and none of us can be with the family because of distance. This virus is no joke. Please be safe everyone and wear a mask.

Any recent grads here who moved back in with family during COVID times? How much do y’all contribute every month to “rent”/groceries/utilities? Idk, I feel like I’m not contributing enough sometimes…

Help - how do I fight claims by scammer healthcare providers?

I recently went to 2 different providers.

Dentist, made appt via Zocdoc to see a dentist that was in network. Another dentist at the location saw me instead who was out of network. I have text evidence they said it would be covered before visit. Claim was denied - asking for ~500 dollars.
