Workers what?

I know you have all heard me rant, rave, and generally complain about insurance companies before, but it still just blows my mind that almost a full year after my ankle injury I am still having to deal with the insurance companies. One would think that after countless calls, explanations, and even a few times with me being a raging ball of anger towards the poor unsuspecting customer service rep, we would have come to a conclusion and resolved this whole matter and been able to put it behind us. No this is NOT the case. There is still the matter of one bill being labeled as a workers comp. How or why it was ever labeled as such is beyond me. I guess what I find to be the most frustrating is that I keep getting bills, that are becoming increasingly more agitated. I have a vision of a Howler from Harry Potter, you know when Ron and Harry drive the car to school and end up Whomping Willow fertilizer..... That is how I feel when I see yet another notice of a past due payment. I thought, or so said the gentleman from UHC, I wouldn't have to deal with them again because they were going to straighten it out. The poor fellow was the recipient of a good tongue lashing with a very frustrated and overwhelmed me on the other end. I guess the old saying still holds true.."If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself". This is what I am doing, I loath it, and I want it done and over with.

Please for the sake of your own sanity don't get hurt while walking across a seemingly innocent piece of grass, the pain will only linger.
