Blue Cross sends another love letter to its members

From a friend:

The day after Thanksgiving and I get a " Love Letter " in the mail from the crooks at Blue Shield of CaLeeforneah
A notification to announce that as of 1-1-2010 :

" Blue Shield will no longer reinstate policies that are cancelled for nonpayment of premiums. This means that if your premiums are not paid in full and received by the due date, your policy will be cancelled and you will need to re-apply for coverage."


Translation of the attached 4 page updated endorsement language :

* If your check is received just one minute late TOO F'G BAD - YOUR POLICY IS CANCELLED!

* No more Grace period! (currently they allow 2 grace periods for late payments in a 12 month window...)

* If we do reinstate you guess what - it'll be at a far higher rate MOFO, Don't like that, cry me a river BEOTCH!

Yet another f-you to the American body politic. The middle class gets screwed again while our Jimmy Carter in the White House continues his sad, tragic metamorphosis into Bill Clinton Redux.

I pay my invoice within 48 hours of receiving the invoice and I double check 4-6 biz days later to make sure the check was cleared....but I imagine in the almost real world unemployment in CA of close to 20% loads of people are struggling to make the monthly payments this is another outrageous backstabbing.
