Greg, I wish you good luck on all fronts, insurance, pallidotomy, etc. I wonder if they gave an HMO a commision on each patient sent to an early grave, they could become any more heartless? You know what they say about the fox watching the henhouse! What a situation! PPO is bad enough, that's what I have to deal with, and I can go outside of the list of health providers, if I pay more of a share. But at least I can use the doctors I know and trust.
