ER–Sorry to hear about your medical issues, but I’m sure everything will be taken care of, and you’ll be good as new.
We have United Healthcare, which has been great, but, I don’t believe they are writing policies in CA anymore–not sure. Since the airline I fly for is not based in CA, it’s a nonissue for us. I’ll probably stop flying commercially in a few years, and, even then, my wife and I will be able to keep this coverage until we’re 65–which is quite a few years away.
No one wants to be ill, but what I like about it is the fact that, if necessary, we can go to MD Anderson, Sloan, Mayo, Hopkins, as well as local providers. From what I understand, this is a special policy negotiated by the union for the pilot group, since they have to insure us, no matter where we live.
If things are working out well for you at Kaiser, you should be all set, and I wish you the best.
