Health Insurance Question - What is the difference between in network and out of network?
On my health insurance plans I have an in network and out of network co-pays and deductables. I dont know or understand the difference. I have $500.00 in deductables for in network and $1,500 for out of network... Can someone please explain?

Doctor and hospitals make contracts with individual insurance companies to cover the insured patients at a discounted rate from their list price. Gets patients for the docs and hospitals and reduces cost for the insurance companies. This is called a "network." If you go to a doc or hospital that does not have a contract with your insurance company, then you have gone "out of network" and it will cost you more. And, if a doc calls in someone to consult with you on your care, and that doc is not in your network, it will cost you more. And his fee may not even count toward your deductable. Lots of traps out there. Gotta be real careful!

What appears on health insurance for alcohol poisoning?
I am a 21 year old college student who was taken to the hospital for alcohol poisoning. I'm on my parents health insurance, what will appear on the bill/forms that they receive? Will they know I went to the hospital and if they do know will they know why?

Specific diagnostic information is never available in EOBs (Explanation of Benefits, the document the insurance company sends to the insured). The EOB will have jargon such as "medical examination", "outpatient procedure", etc. No specific information as to the nature of what was performed at the hospital.

...while there are all sorts of short-term medical insurance available in the philippines, i think it would be better/cheaper if you inquire about getting a medical travel insurance here in the states. it covers all sorts of emergencies while you're anywhere outside the country. check with your agent. http://www.medexassist.com/ for medical insurance in the philippines - http://www.pacificprime.com/countries/ph…

Who authored the Health insurance reform bill that Obama signed into law?
The Health Insurance reform bill that was signed into law today. Who were the authors of that bill? Who were the sponsors?
--------------------
Apparently, the health insurance companies themselves had significant input. "Last summer, executives from those groups visited the White House and pledged to do their part to help pay for the health bill. By signing on to the effort early and agreeing to absorb some of the costs, they were able to help shape its final form. Only time will tell how smart that trade-off was, but a quick look at the bill passed by the House late Sunday shows it was far from their worst-case scenario: ?A government-run health care plan that would compete against private insurers? Never made it out of the Senate. ?Price controls on Medicare's prescription-drug program that would squeeze drug industry profits? Quietly dropped from consideration last fall. ?Cuts in payments to hospitals serving Medicare patients? Trimmed to modest levels and delayed until 2014." http://www.newsobserver.com/2010/03/23/4…
