The transition from my former company's health insurance plan to my wife's company's plan has not been seamless. My wife's company's plan won't cover me until my old employer's plan writes a letter confirming that I'm not covered any more. Meanwhile, I have to pay out of pocket for everything.
Here's what makes this so frustrating: the two plans are with THE SAME COMPANY! The insurance company is waiting for a letter from itself. It cannot act until it tells itself that it can. It knows enough not to pay under the old plan but it claims not to know that the old plan has been terminated because it has not told itself this yet.
Again, the guillotine would come in handy right about now.
