DeadNinja OP , to Personal Finance in Dealing with a BS "Billing Desk" [USA]
@DeadNinja@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks for pointing it out. Edited the title.

Does your medical insurance advocate on your behalf, can you send them the bill yourself for them to deal with?

They generally do. In fact the previous incident I mentioned about in my post - the provider said they sent the claim to my insurance, while in reality they did not. My insurance stepped in at that time (because the bill explicitly mentioned “claimed to XYZ insurance”, and that was obviously a lie) - and they sorted it out with the provider (basically the provider admitting that some intern screwed it up and they had to actually submit the claim). I still left that provider.

This time it’s different - because the provider has not yet submitted the claim and are is not hiding it either. They are just ignoring my requests to first claim then bill.

Not sure if my insurance has anything to do here.

DeadNinja , to Personal Finance in should the US consider a currency redenomination?
@DeadNinja@lemmy.world avatar

Correct, but only if you can make the European Union to agree to slash the value of 1 Euro from $1.09 as of now, to $0.36 ( what you proposed) - and then get every other currency in the world to follow suit.

Good luck with that.

It’s an interesting idea, but the caveat here will be to do this for all currencies in the world, otherwise the concept of foreign exchange rates would get fucked up.

One of the primary parameters for determining exchange rate between two currencies is to first determine how much the same service/product/lifestyle cost in those two currencies.

Unless you “adjust” both the currencies (and in turn, all the currencies in the world), one currency (or country) would spiral into an economic abyss.
