My insurer knows who's best? (5.00 / 0) (#77)

Oh, sure they do - because they have my best interests at heart - even if they don't know me, don't have any relationship with me, and always have their eye on the bottom line, right?

Pardon me for not buying that one.

One should be able to take the recommendation of one's doctor, the person who knows him or her best, shouldn't they?  If the doc gives more than one name, then possibly, problem solved.  But if not, then what?

You're missing the point on how docs know who's best, but that doesn't surprise me.

You believe you should be able to go to an out of network doc if you so choose and allow that doc to choose who to refer you to.  You trust your own doc more.  I don't disagree with that.  

What I don't buy is an insurer will send you to some quack to save a few bucks which is what you are implying.
