TrophySnatcher

It doesnt matter who CNS hires as OC. Get behind the man and pull for him or transfer to another team. Obviously CNS has faith in Sarks abilities and thats good enough for me. All the coaches and players we go through and we have made the playoff every year and won 2 of the last 4 titles. Shame on you!

This is what's happening to you: Medicare and Medicaid have the legal right to the lowest reimbursement possible to physicians so what happens is other insurance companies try to pin their reimbursement prices close to Medicare and Medicaid. It doesn't matter if the doctor bills Medicare or Medicaid or another insurance company for $1000000 they're only going to pay x amount and that's the customary and standard amount that that doctor agreed to when they signed up with the insurance company. So what the doctor is trying to do is defray the rest of the bill on to you to cover whatever they think is the cost of providing care. However the cost of providing care is a highly subjective issue especially if the care provided is questionable in the first place or the care process itself is questionable. It's poor form to try to reccover x amount of money from patients who are already paying premiums for insurance out-of-pocket co-pays and other out-of-pocket expenses and Doctors should know this and try to find a more affordable way of providing care. For example, lots of doctors like to order MRIs right off the bat just because of the billable amount, but in a lot of cases that's not the best exam for a number of reasons including diagnostic criteria and financial cost.

It's even more than that though because if a doctor bills Medicare Medicaid or private insurance and they recover 100% of the bill without any kind of rejection or fight the assumption is that they were previously billing to little and now they're going to raise their price. It's all about recovering as much money as you can all the time. If you worried about getting good care though what you don't want to do is start arguing with doctors because that is the most Surefire way to either get yourself dropped as a patient or just get shity care for the rest of the time you're with that physician. There's a fine line you know.

I would contact my insurance company and my doctor and get an itemized list of what's covered by Insurance versus what's billed for by the doctors and that will give you somewhere to start because if it's a b******* bill you can legitimately say I'm not paying this and here's why. You would not even believe how many times the same medical codes for diagnosis or procedure double or triple billed.

By the way, I'm a licesned physician who is a private patient advocate.

There might be some punctuation errors in here. Voice to text while I'm running around working.

Lol. Naples Sucks? Oh yeah the one city in the United States where the average person makes 70% more income then the bottom 99% sucks???? Its a fact..look it up. It recently was the the wealthiest county in the United States with the highest density of millionaires. To say this place sucks tells me right off the bat that you've never even been there. Because I have lived everywhere in the United States for school and work - from Miami, to LA, to Vegas, to New York in the Caribbean, and in the UK. Everywhere I go people have visited Naples and think it's awesome.

Only about 30% of the Collier County population is 65 or older. Naples is a young town.

Can you point out anything I stated that wasnt true? 29-0.

Driving home from the game last night and listening to the after game radio show on ESPN and Oklahoma fans kept calling in and saying Alabama fans are salty, but hang on a second I think we need to point a couple things out here.

First, wire to wire Oklahoma didn't lead for one second of the game. Second, the closest the score ever was was 11 points. Third, Alabama took a mercy knee inside the 10-yard line to end the game when they could have easily scored. And all this happened even though we made mistakes on both sides of the ball all game.

Next let's talk about Lincoln Riley for a second - what kind of coach shows absolutely no respect for the offense of the number one team in the nation by going for it on virtually every 4th down? And someone might have pointed this out already but I'm going to say it right here:Lincoln Riley has had back-to-back Heisman Trophy winners at what's arguably the most important position on the field for the offense and he has exited the playoff in the first round two years in a row.

Oklahoma needs to take stock because all I heard last night on the way home from Miami was Oklahoma fans calling in trying to stake a claim for a moral victory because they didn't expect they would be able to match up with bama anyway. If that's your stance on your team why do you even want them in the playoffs at all?

Salty,no. Facts,yes.

People hate winners. Truth.

Yep over. This is your superbowl.

This is Alabama's biggest game for the rest of the regular season.

LSU fans, how's it feel knowing Tua is going to clinch the Heisman in Baton Rouge and secure a playoff spot?

This is not a "stop Calvin Ridley" football game.

Last year you had Greedy, Toliver, Jackson, and White and sill lost by 14. It seems to me that vegas putting you at a two touchdown underdog is generous...considering the most you have scored in a game is basically the least Bama has scored. Yes, Arkansas put up 31 points. However, I don't see anyone mentioning the fact that that they also lost by 34.

Enjoy the trash talk while you can because LSU's football season ends on Saturday at 7pm central. I know it and you know it and there nothing that's going to change it.

Colorado State is still the team that has scored the most on Alabama at 23 and thats including FSU, Freson State, Vandy, Arkansas, Tennessee, Miss State, and A&M.

A&M recorded the second highest score at 19. The Tide have given up 78 points all year compared to LSUs 160.

LSU has scored 219 points this season averaging 27 per game; the Tide have scored 336 averaging 42 per game.

In LSUs two losses this season Miss State scored 37 and Troy scored 24; compare these game winning scores to Alabams 42 per game average. In fact, Bama has played only two games this season in which they did not break 40 points and those were FSU and A&M.

Bama is converting 43% on third down and 100% on 4th down. LSU 36% and 50%.

Bama has forced 15 turnovers this year, 4 fumbles and 2 interceptions compared to LSUs 9 turnovers consisting of 2 fumbles and 7 interceptions.

Bama is giving up 47 penalty yards per game while LSU is giving up 65.

Where does the "LSU has a chance", "LSU will win", "LSU is gonna win out", "What if LSU runs the table" ideology come from?

The facts are that LSU will lose big this Saturday.
