I'm looking to have a top surgery (breast removal) and was just wondering if you guys happen to know of any health insurance that is GLBT esp transgender friendly, and/or helps cover surgeries?
--------------------
Look at the HRC information on trans people and work benefits. This includes a link that lists companies that have trans inclusive health care plans. http://www.hrc.org/issues/workplace/bene…

Can I change my health insurance mailing address if I'm still under my parents?
Basically I'm just wondering if I can change my mailing address with my health insurance company, eventhough I am still listed under my parents? Reason being, I'm living at a different address and would like everything they send addressed to me, sent to me. I just don't want this information to constitute something that means I have to leave my parent's plan
--------------------
You should be able to change your mailing address yes, but if you are looking for you parents to pay the parts of the bill that the insurance does not cover, they would not get that information so that burden would be up to you to cover. Or if you want them sent to you but show them to your parents and they give you the money to pay on it--thats another option.

can an operation be refused with private health insurance?
I'm considering using my Bupa Private Health Insurance to sort out a reoccurring problem with tonsillitis. I've decided that I would rather have them removed altogether and be done with it forever as I've had them 5 times since nov last year. Can the consultant refuse to take them out or do they have to accept my wishes?
--------------------
Sounds like you have two questions...first, can your Ear, Nose and Throat specialist refuse to remove your tonsils without good medical cause. The answer is yes, regardless of what insurance plan you have, if the physician doesn't feel that it is medically warranted, or would in some way be harmful to remove the tonsils, they can refuse to do the surgery. If you disagree with his/her determination, you have the option of seeking a second opinion. There is also the matter of your insurance company refusing to pay for a surgery that was not considered "medically necessary" according to their guidelines. It would be important to know if they consider the tonsillectomy "elective" if your doctor does not support you in your decision to have them removed. Good luck in your efforts to get help!

Rentals in UAE are the most expensive part. I believe tht if you want to rent a place (2-bed apmt), it will cost you atleast about 5kdhs per month. I would suggest that you budget between 5 and 7k dhs (depends on luck also you see). Food is not very expensive unless you decide to eat out often. Again, Indian restaurants are cheap; Lebanese are also. If you need italian mexican etc its more expensive. But you should budget for about 4k dhs per month. Car: While car can cost anywhere between 1.5k to .....depending on the car you want, you have to factor for the initial period (Can be 6months or more) for getting a license. This process of getting a license will cost you (minimum) of 2k dhs. Till you get the license your transport cost (or time) will be very high. Budget for that. If you live in Sharjah and work in Dubai, please factor for atleast 1hour to 1.5hour of travel every day (one way). The travel costs should not be too much. But its a hassle. Schools will be an expensive affair but many times the company will cover it. Please check with them. If its not covered, then you will have to factor between 800dhs to 2000dhs per month. This is a big expense. Electricty, water -- about 400dhs. Telephones - Again a big range, but remember that the call costs are extremely high (one of the highest in the world). So, you have to factor that. Petrol is cheap. Car Insurance is expensive (can be between 2k to 5k per year). Summary: As someone else said, there are people who live from 1k dhs per month onwards. Average salaries are about 7k to 10k dhs for a decent job. So, you are doing good. But if your main aim is to save, then be prepared to live in less-than-happy environments, travel long hours. If you want to enjoy life and give your kids a good exposure (multi-cultural environment, good facilities etc) then its perfect and you can do with the salary you mention. One last word of caution: Job visas have some restrictions attached. You may not be able to easily switch jobs. Also, (though illegal) i hear that many companies hold your passports. These are some quirks of this country (and region). Be prepared for them. Set your expectations accordingly and you will enjoy life. Welcome to UAE. Enjoy your stay

can someone please explain to me the whole issue about health care, insurance ?

The bottom line is that this administration wants bigger government and this will add to their control and control is what it's all about. Obamacide will add trillions to the deficit, will take away your right to proper health care (there will be a government paper pusher making choices on your health are), it will take away millions from Medicare thus giving seniors a death sentence, and it will allow illegal aliens the right to medical care on your dollar.

In one town 79%of adults have health insurance. What is the probability that 10 adults selected at random from?
the town all have health insurance. Books answer 0.095 how?
--------------------
It's simple. There is a chance of 79% if you select one person that they will have insurance. Therefore, for the 10 people it would just be (0.79)^10, which is 0.09468, which when rounded, is 0.095
