[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had Kaiser for only 1 year (thankfully) as that was the insurance provided through my graduate school.  After that 1 year, the school switched to BCBS.  I did not live in an area with Kaiser hospitals, but all of my doctors were covered.  The problems that arose were all billing-related and really crazy.  They insisted that an annual physical was not covered by my insurance and kept charging me an astronomical amount for the visit.  I refused to pay, contested, spoke to dozens of people at Kaiser over the course of several months, and eventually they relented.  I heard the same story from multiple other students.  [/quote]

This is fake news.  I have Kaiser and never get bills, ever. (other than the obvious health care deductions from paycheck).  You have your co-pays (whatever they are - and there are no surprises, you know it ahead of time) and that is that.  My daughter was at DC Children's for five nights with a very unpleasant, unplanned health issue, seeing multiple top notch specialists (Kaiser has an arrangement to outsource at Children's), and our co-pay was $100.
