gridloreI am beyond done with these idiots at "CareMore." Last fall I scheduled my annual physical with my PCP. He's sent lab orders in, which I can get done the same day as the labs ordered by my hemo-oncologist. I see Dr. Morgan (PCP) and Dr. Agrawal (Oncology) about a week apart. The nice thing is all my current doctors can see all the current results and notes.
Today, CareMore calls. They haven't seen me at one of their centers in a while and wanted to schedule a physical. I tell them that I'm having that done by my PCP. They whine. I lower the boom.
My insurance pays for ONE full physical a year. And I have to trust a doctor before I can relax enough for a full exam. I have no idea who these doctors are, they are *not* part of my care team, and why should I have to go through this twice, including a second set of labs, when they can just see the results from the doctor I trust?
Guess what? THEY CAN'T SEE THOSE RECORDS!!!! This alleged 'health management group" doesn't have access to my records the way my actual insurance provider can.
As a reminder, these are the same morons who tried to charge me for surgery I had years ago and that was paid in full by MediCal.
