Second year now. My wife spent the better part of this morning attempting to resolve the dilemma of her this-year's provider, Health Net, not offering service in our area for 2016. The whole shebang looks like an experimental crap-shoot, providers get in, experience losses, then get out. Typical, I suppose. Big problem is this: she has accepted my new Dr. as hers also. The two most likely new providers do not list him. So, if she prefers to see Dr. Ken, she will have to foot the bill. This is horseshit for so-called Affordable Care for everyone. One cannot choose his/her doctor via familiarity with several, but must pick one off a list, knowing absolutely nothing about the doctor. Then if it works out, the following year, you cannot use him any longer.
She came away thoroughly disgusted, and I feel for her plight. 2017, she will be on Medicare, a new story waiting to be told. imp
