I hate my life. Resigning...What do I do about health insurance? How long will I be covered? Just the two weeks? Or can they make me leave that day?

Insurance Defense Associates: Why not unionize? A lot of people are complaining about very low salaries and high billable requirements. This is a product of low rates and stringent billing requirements imposed by insurance carriers. Unionization at a few large shops like Wilson Elser and Lewis Brisbois can single-handedly turn the entire ID industry around. A rising tide lifts all boats.

Any Insurance Broker Account Managers in Oklahoma (Health/Life/ Employee Benefits)?

I have a question for my fellow PI paralegals in Texas. TPCIGA requires that we submit all medical bills through the clients insurance before proceeding further. The client in question has Aetna. I sent the bills with a cover letter to Aetna via certified mail. I am having so much trouble getting a status on said claim. Does anyone here have experience with that and can assist me? Any help or guidance is appreciated.

I have been an adjuster for almost 5 years, although I have loved almost all of my time adjusting and find it fun, in a sense, I am so ready to take my skills into underwriting. Does anyone have any tips for transitioning from adjusting to underwriting? I know this will sound cliche but I find myself to be very passionate about insurance and I do well when interviewed, but it is difficult to get a response for underwriting applications because they all “require” underwriting experience.

I’m considering joining what I think is a promising startup applying machine learning to health plan operations. They already have 3 multi year deals signed with a national plan (payment integrity, provider data, and Medicare RAF scoring), outside of established players (Optum/Cotiviti) and some newer startups (Cogitativo), I don’t see much competition and it looks pretty promising, anyone know of other competitors or if I’m missing something? Seems pretty wide open to me.

NYC Freelancers! My Medicaid is ending soon and I need to start making health insurance decisions (lame). My current agency is offering me FT and I’m pretty terrified as I feel like I’m going to sell away my freedom. Their health insurance is pretty good and allows me to put my partner on it. I’m trying to also rationalize paying for my own in NYC but it’s so expensive ($500+/mo). I go to the doctor fairly often. Single NYC freelancers (no kids), what do you pay monthly or yearly? Worth it?

I'm single M. Mid 30s and have been working since early 20s. 300k in investments ( including emergency fund) and another 200k in 401k retirement .
Fully stressed out and thinking of taking a break for 2 years to decide what I want to do with life and some global travelling with points. Plan is to use 2k/mo for 24 months totalling 48k.

Any other creative ways to coast for 2 years without losing much of what I have accumulated? Or anyone did something similar to this to share your experiences?

Recommendations for health clubs for families? Pool that welcomes kids is a must!

What’s your recommendation if my new 401k does not accept pension rollover? I think the only 2 roll over options left are traditional/Roth IRA, right? If I first roll over the pension to traditional IRA, and then immediately roll over the traditional IRA to my new 401k, will I still trigger the pro rata rule when I do backdoor Roth in the future? I have never contributed to a traditional IRA or done backdoor Roth so far.

Anyone have insights on consulting work as a PO/PM? How often do these roles convert into FT roles with the client? I have a couple opportunities of this type but not sure how seriously to pursue them.

How do you gauge competence across your juniors?

My teammates (also juniors) are a lot more vocal and faster than I am. But they often say things that are inaccurate and produce work that is sloppy (and also inaccurate) that I will spend time to clean up because I am not ok with turning in subpar work. I am told that my work, while taking longer, is thoughtful but I also don’t like to speak up if I’m not 100% sure of an answer. I worry that I’ll get bad reviews (haven’t thus far) in the future
