They didn't realize that you only get as many days as they decide you need. If someone documents in your chart that you smiled when you are supposed to be depressed then BAM, you're outta there.

What is sad about this, the insurance companies do this in many cases and not just in this feild!

I have seen many expos on National TV who do this. They are there to make $$$$$$


Wonder who has many big money lobbiests to take care of this?

Scratch mine and I will scratch yours!

$21.00 a month, according to some twits, my booze bill is higher than this!

But, if one is able to do this even with one person a month should be considered the Mother or Father of the year!!

Even if single and one wants something nice, well, the fat foods are cheeper.

So, I cannot have shrimp or filet mignon, I have to try and buy enough Mac, Cheese and tuna fish to add to it?

Oh, try Raman noodles, add water! So will not do that! I want my stomach to survive!
