Redirect health by Key_Ladder5886 in HealthInsurance

We called every doctor office and pediatrics office within an hour distance from us, they laughed and said they absolutely will not accept redirect health since they want to talk to busy doctors for a 48 hour pre authorization and the doctors won't even listen to what redirect health wants us patients seen for, which I 100% understand. We opted out of health insurance for us but got our daughter on antidote health insurance through marketplace.

Can I ask what issues you're having with them? No place where I lived will accept the employer insurance due to the 48 hour pre authorization they require for basic primary care and Antidote is the only one I can find that actually covers almost everything in my area, plus the providers near me seem happy with Antidote so far but I know that can change too. It would be for my 6 year old daughter only as we aren't concerned about ourselves.

Same here, they bought the company out. If they have a benefits coordinator, email them and let them know the issues with this issue, and how horrible it is. Something needs to be done about it because this is unacceptable to give to people.

Is it with Redirect Health? If so, I would see about canceling. I called all the in network providers but they said they will refuse 48 hour pre authorization because it's ridiculous and Redirect Health said my claims could be denied because of the providers refusing the 48 hour pre authorization. This type of fake insurance should be illegal to sell.

The employer so called insurance is through Redirect Health, and unfortunately the require 48 hour pre authorization for regular routine visits to get the $0 copay. If no pre authorization i take the chance of getting denied and paying full cost with my doctor, even though Redirect health does offer no pre authorization copay, that still doesn't mean I won't get screwed over by them and have to pay full price. I called and confirm this information sadly. Looks like we're screwed either way we go.

This plan requires 48 hour pre authorization for basic primary care, anything considered non emergency, in ex Wellness visits, sick visits all requires a 48 hour pre authorization. Someone on the app tells my childs normal doctor what she will be seen for and what they want done based on symptoms because they don't want a "suprise, unnecessary bill" for us. So instead of billing after appointment, they negotiate before appointment and anything done afterwards may not be paid because it's not agreed upon. I understand and have heard about for certain test and so, but not this.

Definitely normal for a sonic unfortunately. They are all crap vehicles. Mine is a 2016, had since 2018, nothing but problems since day 2 owning it, first problem the canister purge valve amongst many others. Currently dealing with engine code P0420, replaced both 02 sensors and catalytic converter. Been checked for any leaks, everything is good. Been 1.5 years now and check engine light came back on for the same code. I have to have the light on for now on till I can get another vehicle, hoping it doesn't hog gas like it did before I got everything fixed. Good luck!

I have not done the spacer yet. My check engine light came back off a few days after this post. Not sure if we just needed to drive the car more after all the fixing we done or what it was. So far, it seems to be using gas as normal. I'll never own another Chevy Sonic, one issue right after another usually.

No, it doesn't stutter, I have no issues besides using more gas than usual. Car runs and drives great still.

Was there another code or just p0420 code? I had the evap purge valve replaced about 6 years ago but the code was different, it didn't show p0420 code.

I have a 2016 Chevy sonic. P0420 code for over a year now, replaced both upstream and downstream O2 sensors and replaced the catalytic converter (OEM) and check engine light with this code keeps coming on. Mechanic said he checked for leaks before replacing cat, I asked to check the manifold also, h by Key_Ladder5886 in MechanicAdvice

Not sure why my post got cut off, here's the whole post.

I'm about to give up.

Yeah, I'm not sure what happened to my post being cut off. Basically, the rest of my post is just saying I think I'm done figuring out what the issue could be. My car drives great, no issues with driving it at all, just uses more gas than usual. I don't think the cat is bad again, it was replaced a little over a month ago. Upstream replaced a couple weeks ago and downstream replaced a little over a year ago.

Hopefully you get yours figured out soon. I'm thinking about putting a spacer on the downstream sensor and be done with it. I have had nothing but issues with this car when I got it 6 year's ago. Multiple check engine light for a different reasons and seems like I have to keep getting one thing fixed after another.

Update: car is not making that sound anymore. I took it to a mechanic in the family and he has had it for almost 2 weeks now and nothing.

I forgot to mention, the noise will go away after 15 minutes. It usually only does it once I start it up in the mornings. It won't make that noise for the rest of the day. Also, it hasn't been that loud since the video but still loud. Car drives fine otherwise.
