Thanks to the herculean efforts of Dennis Daniel, the POZ human resources person and Wendy Frank, the insurance agent and Jeanine Muzzi battling the bureaucracy of Oxford Health Insurance, I once again have both health insurance and prescription coverage!
I was actually able to swing by Village Apothecary and pickup my outstanding prescriptions. There was no gap in coverage, so all the things that got rejected in the last week should be able to be resubmitted and just work.
It will be a clerical mess, but I can deal with that. Boy that feels better!

That is really great that you have finally won over the insurance company! It shows that with enough persistance you can do anything. As for your comment as to what is a good Insurance Plan. I found a website http://www.coast2coastquotes.com that will send you 5 quotes on Health Insurance. It's nice becuase they will give the best going rate! Well I'm happy to see someone doing better in the world, stay well!

I went to http://www.coast2coastquotes.com to look, but they require personal information that would go into a database and identify me as a person with HIV. I've never had to get my own health insurance, so I have never been denied coverage before. If you admit you have HIV, isn't that an automatic denial?

you all have it too well. glad your all doing good with your free power chairs and prior approvals and entourages. Youre the upper class of the disenfranchised. What about someone like me who lives on 165 a week and still gets denied ssi because they say a black crack head whos got 3 kids deserves it more. People are out there raping the system, and these blogs are the stories of only people who want free free free. lemme guess, you have a private doc? you get every benefit under the sun? you ride our busus for almost free.Free transportation and free metrocard? But the man sitting next to you has AIDS for 15 years and because he tried to work and keeps getting knocked down, the system knocks him down further,So take your prior approval power chair and volunteer at a grassroots ASO rather than some Corporate GMHC BS. Positive is good, but come on, there are others still dying!!!!!

Rather than trying to find insurance on your own. You should speak to an agent. They will be able to discuss plans that would accept you and be affordable. If you go to http://www.lowcostinsur.com and fill out a request form. An agent will contact you directly to discuss these options.
