I get mad when I call my health insurance company to ask a question and some customer service rep starts looking at my file and reminding me of annual exams I need. What about HIPAA? It is no one else’s right to know what tests or exams I choose to have or not have! I don’t have to explain myself to anyone. I also just got an email reminder from Anthem about the same thing but that is not as bad as being questioned by a live person who has no right being in my business!
Rant over.

You’re mad that your health insurance is asking about exams they are paying for you to take? Are you mad when the bank talks to you about your money or your boss talks to you about your job?

OP: Do you know what HIPPA actually does? It’s your insurance co asking about insurance related things…

What lol? They are your insurance company. They aren't violating HIPAA by looking at their own records lol.

Just wait until they start denying coverage for detectable conditions if you don't do your yearly exams. I'm surprised they don't already (I would).

They want you to get the annual exams so issues are detected faster and theoretically less money is needed to be spent on your care.

No comment on the HIPAA stuff since all that is probably approved by you somewhere in the million pages of documentation. Lol

Guaranteed that during the enrollment process, you gave Anthem access to your medical records.

I mean they pay your physicians for their services. They already know if you are going or not. I fail to see your point.

Colleague has put in his resignation. They are offering him whatever he wants to stay including 4days a week work from home. He’s not bluffing and plans to leave. However, at this same time I was asked to begin working as a supervisor for the engineering team and I would get a promotion at the beginning of the year. I have been supervising and managing our team of 6 for months with no extra pay or bonuses. I was told yesterday that raises will be light this year. Yet today they spare nothing.

Several years ago a gay male acquaintance said he didn't date Black guys. It made me bristle but I was not surprised. Now he's married to one. I feel in a way vindicated every time I see his loving social media posts with his Black husband of like 5 years or so now.

How did he get over his apparent aversion to Black men enough to go and marry one? Where would he be if he hadn't had a change of heart?

I wish there were a tactful way to remind him he said that and watch as he eats his words...
