i hope this is the right subreddit for this! i just found out that my dietitian for an ed is no longer fully covered by insurance and my weekly appointments are now going to cost 90 dollars. i’m wondering if there’s a way to get insurance to continue to cover? like could i have my primary care physician or psychiatrist refer me to a dietitian? tbf i am not as aware of how insurance works as i should be so i have no idea if its even a possibility. edit for clarity: my insurance has not changed. i live in michigan and use blue cross blue shield. i was unaware that they will only fully cover a certain number of appointments and i have reached that number.

In 2022 I made a small insurance claim for water damage, $2k, with Progressive. Since then, every time I get quotes for homeowners insurance I get denied, or have to accept high rates, because the Lexxis Nexxus database shows I made 3 claims. A year ago I disputed these several times, and got a letter from Progressive that confirms I only made 1 claim. When I talk to LN, they tell me they've removed the claims, but over a year later I'm still getting denied by insurance quotes and told they are still showing up by the insurance companies. Is there an agency like the CFPB I can submit a complaint to about Lexxus? Or do I need to get a lawyer letter involved? I already have to deal with living in a hurricane prone area with high rates and these higher rates are crippling. LOCATION: TEXAS.

Got a quote from GEICO like around a week ago for 299 and month for full coverage, it’s the cheapest one I found compared to other insurance companies charging me 2x that at 18 I called GEICO and ran through the quote with him for a 2022 Hyundai Elantra limited he said it will be 304. That car ended up getting sold I found a new car I wanted clean title not a rental 7k miles 2024 Hyundai Elantra sel I got quoted $299 for it last week. Now I did another quote for the same car it’s all the same info I had last week and now it’s at $540 a month. I called and the GEICO guy said “rates can go up” and I highly doubt they go up $250 in a week. He did say my $299 quote sounded unrealistic and they whouldnt quote that when I literally have the saved quote on my GEICO app. I’m just wondering is this normal? And I can still buy the $299 a month quote right now since I did save it but I am scared they will raise my insurance prices to 550 a month after the 6 months. I do have screen shots of both quotes but just can’t add them. Should I buy the $300 a month quote since it’s the cheapest I found or will GEICO raise my rates after 6 months.

I recently had to cancel my insurance policy within 24 hours, and I was charged a $12 enrollment fee. Dianna, a manager from MetLife Pet Insurance, mentioned that while they will refund the premium, the $12 enrollment fee is non-refundable and isn’t included in the premium. Just a friendly heads-up for fellow pet owners!

I went to an out of network Health specialist. I had 2 visits for around $200 per visit paid via credit card. They told me to send my invoice/receipt to my insurance company and they would reimburse me. I submitted 2 claims to United Healthcare and they were approved as out of network which went towards that deductible. I just assumed that after that approval, a check from UHC would be sent in the mail to me. It wasn’t. I chatted with UHC customer service today and they said to contact the health specialist business to resubmit the claim as in network. Talked to the specialist business representative and they don’t deal with insurance AT ALL. They are out of network for everyone and leave it to the patient/customer to handle insurance reimbursements if applicable. I’m at a loss for what to do now. I know I have to get it sorted with UHC but idk what to say or do at this point. How do I get reimbursed? Was I not supposed to submit a claim? Should I have gone through a different process and submitted something else? I’ve never had to deal with this kind of situation before and I cannot afford to not be reimbursed. Any tips or help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi, I recently adopted a 1 year old retriever mix and he was limping so we had to get him checked, turns out the doctor said while playing he might have hurt himself and he will recover in 2-3 months but now I was planning to get insurance from SPOT or ASPCA , they have specifically written knee and ligament conditions are pre existing forever so for example if my dog gets arthritis later in his life, would that be a pre existing condition? I am trying to find the insurance for my dog, I had pretty bad experience with FETCH so definitely no FETCH for us. Can you let me know what's the best insurance I can use to insure my dog given this curable injury is not considered pre existing for any bigger condition.

My mom’s home insurance policy looked high so I called the insurance company and asked them to walk me through it. Without changing any of the coverage/details, they determined it was thousands higher than it should be and couldn’t explain why. When I asked about a refund they said they could refund a few hundred dollars (she overpaid by thousands for this year). The policy renews in October so I’m assuming this is a prorated amount, is this expected? Again, the coverage details did not change and they can’t explain why it’s that high. At the very least, shouldn’t she be refunded by how much she overpaid for this year? I need to dig through my parents’ paperwork but it looks like this has been happening for years.

The accident occurred on 3/20 and was told they’re taking 100% fault. It all happened so fast, but I was on my way to work in the morning driving 45 in a 45 (it’s also dark and raining). I’m coming up to a 2-way crossroad where the guy’s road had a stop sign and mine didn’t. When I got close to the crossroad I see that he’s rolling up to the stop sign and I assume he’s stopping..because there’s a stop sign. Instead, he keeps rolling into the middle of the lane where I proceed to slam on my brakes and instinctively veer to the left to avoid him but I end up completely smashing the side of his car at 45 mph. I ended up missing that Thursday and Friday and returned to work on Monday since I was told I wouldn’t have to do much work. He ended up not even having a scratch while I have to go to the ER because I was so rattled and didn’t really know the extent of my injuries besides not being able to hear out of my left ear due to it ringing and sounding really muffled. I get a CT scan at the ER and was told that they couldn’t find anything major, so they sent me home with some muscle relaxers and a note for “light work no lifting” for work. A couple days later, I started feeling the extent of my injuries. Taking a deep breath, laughing, coughing, anything that expanded my rib cage or moved/put any pressure on my shoulder blade hurt really bad. My neck was stiff from the whiplash and I could crack my neck in ways I never had. My ear was still muffled with loud ringing and was very disorienting. This affected my sleep, work, daily activities like driving, working out, or even cleaning my apartment. It has been a week and a half since the accident and I’m still feeling all that pain. Albeit, not as significant and alarming as last week, but I still have a muffled left ear with some ringing, pain when my chest expands, shoulder blade pain, anxiety whenever I drive(which is a huge part of my job), sleeping issues, and as silly as this sounds, has destroyed my happiness. I got engaged the weekend before the accident and wanted the celebrate with friends the weekend after, but I wasn’t even able to leave our apartment to celebrate because of how much pain I was in. His insurance has offered me $2,500 for pain and suffering but I feel like that’s a slap in the face. I explained my situation to an attorney and he said it looks like they can make a decent case but said he couldn’t give me a number on how much he thought the case would be worth. So my questions are, can someone give me a ballpark estimate on how much I should negotiate for? & Do I need an attorney involved or is this a situation where I should fight the claim and negotiate myself? TL;DR I got in a high speed accident and his insurance is accepting 100% fault. I got out lucky but am still experiencing injuries like whiplash, some bruised ribs, shoulder blade pain, and muffled hearing. His insurance offered $2,500 and I don’t believe that’s enough for what I’ve gone through. How much could I counter offer for and should I get an attorney involved? Edit: I apologize, I did end up going to a primary care doctor last Friday but he told me the pain I experienced is common and went over the CT scan that the ER did and said “everything looks fine here”. I have an ear, nose, mouth appointment this Friday. Edit 2: I’m sorry if these seem like stupid questions, I’m just really young and don’t have any help outside of my mother.

Hi guys ! I'm considering switching pet insurance plans for my 6 year old mini Aussie. I currently have MetLife Pet Illness and Injury, but with one minor shoulder injury - maxed out my benefits after one visit. As my baby gets older - I want to make sure I have the best coverage for him - especially with ortho treatments ( ie. PRP injections) Any Recommendations would be very appreciated !

We were just kicked off our car insurance policy after 22 years of being loyal customers because my daughter filed a claim after an accident where she was not at fault, her 1y/o son was in the car at the time. Their reasoning for terminating our policy is that I didn’t list her then 3 month old son at the time of filling out the attention letter back in December. We’re in Michigan, how is this legal?
