My Health Insurance said that if your over 19 you don’t need to see. They of course didn’t say those exact words but they said that if your over 19 you dont qualify for a discount on glasses. Is this a ObamaCare (or lack of it) thing?
April 24, 2014 4:44 pm at 4:44 pm #1012451🐵 ⌨ GamanitParticipantMy Health Insurance said you don’t need teeth. They of course didn’t say those exact words, but they said they do not cover dental work.
April 24, 2014 4:57 pm at 4:57 pm #1012452☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantMy health insurance said I do not need to eat. They of course didn’t say those exact words but they said that they won’t pay my grocery bill.
April 24, 2014 4:57 pm at 4:57 pm #1012453🍫Syag LchochmaParticipantGamanit – mine says it in almost those words, when I was on public aid, they wouldn’t cover having adult teeth fixed, only pulled.
April 24, 2014 5:00 pm at 5:00 pm #1012454🐵 ⌨ GamanitParticipantMedicaid doesn’t cover root canals, but they do cover dentures. Mine doesn’t cover any dental work at all, they say to get separate dental insurance. So that’s what I had to do…
April 24, 2014 5:19 pm at 5:19 pm #1012455👑RebYidd23ParticipantDaasYochid, this is no joking matter. Health insurance is supposed to cover medical expenses. Teeth and eyes are parts of the human body and therefore must be covered.
April 24, 2014 5:24 pm at 5:24 pm #1012456🐵 ⌨ GamanitParticipantYou can buy decent glasses online for under $50.
April 24, 2014 5:26 pm at 5:26 pm #1012457🐵 ⌨ GamanitParticipantrebyidd23- insurance does not have to cover anything that was not included in the plan coverage prior to signing up.
April 24, 2014 5:31 pm at 5:31 pm #1012458☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantRebyidd, my stomach is also part of my body.
My point (and I’m glad if you found the way I expressed it humorous) is that medical insurance is not supposed to cover anything related to human health. Many plans don’t cover dental and vision, and unless they mislead you, there’s really no tayna against the insurance company.
April 24, 2014 5:34 pm at 5:34 pm #1012459👑RebYidd23ParticipantYes, but why doesn’t the insurance cover it instead of the expensive stitches and surgery for people who bump into things or trip (as a result of no glasses)?
April 24, 2014 5:48 pm at 5:48 pm #1012460🐵 ⌨ GamanitParticipantI guess insurance figures that most people will take care of purchasing glasses on their own. Like they purchase groceries and don’t land in the emergency room for starvation complications.
April 24, 2014 6:14 pm at 6:14 pm #1012461apushatayidParticipantNumerous plans offer coverage for glasses. You purchased the wrong plan.
April 24, 2014 6:40 pm at 6:40 pm #1012462takahmamashParticipantI don’t think any insurance covers glasses. The insurance we had pre-aliyah covered eye exams, but not glasses. We paid for glasses out of our pre-tax flexible spending account.
April 24, 2014 7:31 pm at 7:31 pm #1012463popa_bar_abbaParticipantMine does. Because I got it before obamacare. But it doesn’t cover childbirth–good thing I’m a man.
April 24, 2014 7:52 pm at 7:52 pm #1012464apushatayidParticipantI am wearing glasses paid for by my health insurance provider. True, it does not cover the entire amount, but the annual allowance went a long way to covering my glasses, and with the supplemental coverage I purchased I can get quite an expensive pair of frames. Again, purchase a plan that comes with such coverage.
April 24, 2014 8:10 pm at 8:10 pm #1012465EpisParticipantThey cover glasses untill the age of 19
April 25, 2014 3:06 am at 3:06 am #1012466🍫Syag LchochmaParticipantI purchased Tznius Insurance, Inc. They cover everything!
