health care
So it's been brought to my attention that I need to see a doctor. I don't have a doctor here in Chicago, but I do have health insurance through my employer, so I figured "how hard could it be?"
Ha ha.
Around noon I was flailing about in an automated answering system that claimed not to have any record of me, and every time I tried to speak to an actual human I was told, by a recording, to call back during normal business hours. Keep in mind that this was at noon. On a Thursday.
I eventually figured out that my employers had switched insurers over the summer (I guess I missed the memo). CIGNA is the new insurer, so I need to throw away my old Unicare card and get a CIGNA card. No biggie. Of course, the area of the CIGNA website where you can request a card requires you to enter your "CIGNA HealthCare ID," which should be the "first nine numbers on your CIGNA HealthCare ID card."
