Private Praxis Or Clinic Better?

I need to find a good doctor for my facial fracture – is it better to go to a doctor with a private praxis/office or better to go to a clinic like UCLA or Cedars Sinai? Who’s usually more experienced? Also can anyone recommend a very good plastic/reconstructive surgeon in the los angeles area who deals with facial fractures? Thank you.

I am looking to work from home and it’s hard to find anything through all the scams. I am willing to train. Thanks!

My mother is trying to figure out somewhere she can move where she will be guaranteed access to health insurance regardless of her health problems. She lives on a very small budget and cannot afford outrageous premiums. I have heard that some states guarantee access to health insurance regardless of medical conditions, and I am hoping someone can tell me if this is true, and which states do this. Or if someone could point me in the direction of a website that has this information that would also be helpful.

Im pretty frustrated. I had my first sonogram today and he wasn’t allowed in. It pisses me off that he can’t see our little baby moving in there and share all the special moments. Do I need a private doctor for that?? Thanks!

“…To avert one case of acute illness, it is usually necessary to provide preventive care to many patients, most of whom would not have suffered that illness anyway. … Researchers who have examined the effects of preventive care generally find that the added costs of widespread use of preventive services tend to exceed the savings from averted illness.”

I know health funds require certain waiting period before they cover you for pregnancy/birth related services. If you choose the top cover (and meet the waiting period criteria), what do the heath funds actually help cover? Is it only hospital? or do they cover doctor’s fees also? Does Medicare cover anything?

I visted the doctor for my annual preventive cares services and had the tests done. But when I
saw the claims with my insurance I saw that it was not filed as Preventive Care and insurance had
paid the money from my HRA account. The service is suppose to be free and 100% covered.
I talked to the doctor and his agent to cancel this claim but they are not helping since they got
paid. I went back to insurance and they are say I need to talk to doctor.
What to do in this case so that I get back money so that I can use it for other neccessary
medical benefits?
The doctor cheated and did not file the claim as preventive.
Now I an helpless with insurance, the doctor and his agent.
How do I take up this matter and get back my money?
Please suggest.
