Who's YOUR insurance company?



Recommended Posts

Just trying to get a broad view of popular, effective insurance plans...

1.) Who's you're insurance company?

2.) What state do you live in?

3.) Was your plan provided by your employer or do you pay for it out of your own pocket?

4.) Are you banded yet, waiting for approval, denied...etc?

Thanks for all of your help, guys!

2.) What state do you live in? MO

3.) Was your plan provided by your employer or do you pay for it out of your own pocket? Yes. It's employer-sponsored, meaning they pay all or part of the cost. In my case they pay part, so I still have premiums taken out of each check.
