Default Cheaper HMO indicators...

INDICATORS THAT YOUR EMPLOYER HAS CHANGED TO
A CHEAPER HMO...


1) Your annual breast exam is done at Hooter's.

2) Directions to your Doctor's office include "Take a left when
entering the trailer park."

3) The tongue depressors taste faintly of Fudgesicles.

4) The only proctologist in the plan is "Gus" from Roto-Rooter.

5) The only item listed under Preventative Care coverage is "An
apple a day."

6) Your primary care physician is wearing the pants you gave to
Goodwill.

7) "The patient is responsible for 200% of out of net charges" is
not a typographical error.

8) The only expense covered 100% is "embalming."

9) With your new HMO, your Prozac come in different colors with
Little "M"s on them.

AND THE NUMBER ONE SIGN YOU'VE JOINED A VERY CHEAP HMO:

10) You ask for Viagra, and they give you a Popsicle stick and Duct
tape.
