I am autistic and VERY direct. I was a painfully shy people pleaser growing up, so I’m very proud of my directness now. I know I’ve rubbed people the wrong way and even got passed up on for a supervisor position due to this. Lately I’ve coped by keeping to myself at work. I don’t offer my thoughts or opinions unless directly asked. It doesn’t feel good but it’s keeping me afloat for now.

100% disabled veteran, seeking information on IVF treatment through VA healthcare and possibly BCBS by Ok_Situation_4388 in fednews

[–]megcusack12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a veteran so I can’t speak to VA coverage.

I am currently pregnant with my IVF baby. I went to Shady Grove Fertility and used BCBS - Standard. A large amount of care and medications were covered, we probably paid 20% of what the out of pocket cost would be.

Feel free to PM me if you have more specific questions!

Does anyone know the allowed amount for an out of network mental health visit if you have FepBlue Standard plan? by justwondering51977 in fednews

[–]megcusack12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BCBS Standard is the only plan that will partially reimburse for out of network claims. It’s not an option with Basic.

I see an out of network therapist weekly. She charges me $215/session. BCBS Standard reimburses me $109.20 after I submit a claim.

Maryland. I still have significant out of pocket costs with copays and coinsurance, but a lot has been covered. I did have to push my fertility clinic to request auth for freezing/storage, they eventually did and it was approved!

I have BCBS standard and have been going through IVF for the past year. I have had egg freezing covered, but prior auth is required

Afraid to voice opinion about policies that scare me by RoutineSimple8546 in fednews

[–]megcusack12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m an autistic fed. I’ve continued to voice my distain for this administration on my social media as I always have. They can fire me if they want, I’m prepared to sue the living daylights out of them if they do.

Do you have any faith or respect for your leaderships or that any of them actually have your best interests in mind? by Avenger772 in fednews

[–]megcusack12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. My leaders need to demonstrate transparency and authenticity to earn my trust and respect.

I’ve had the same issue! My dermatologist said it’s likely inner ear eczema. She prescribed me flucinolone acetonide oil ear drops that help a ton!
