Today I finished my visits to my doctor for procedures I knew as a young person as vein stripping. This is another benefit to having taught so many years. I get to have veins that don't work exactly as they should with blood flowing freeling up and down!! Being awakened at night with pulsing legs led me to seek the doctor's advice. BTW, veins aren't "stripped any longer."
Anyway, while the doctor was finishing up this last procedure, I mentioned lightly that "wait 'till you see that any procedure that has a cosmetic benefit will be denied." To my disbelief he said that has already happened and that I would be part of the last group.
Here's what bugs me about this: those who want cosmetic work done on their legs or anywhere else for that matter and have money will not be bothered by this new outcome; those who need a procedure to correct a medical problem will now have to put out more money other than the regular insurance premium to correct this problem.
Now, this is new to me. How about you?
