There is so much to be outraged about these days -- Ukraine, the Middle East, climate change, and the dysfunctional GOP that is holding our government hostage so that it can't address any of these--that I almost hesitate to voice my sheer stupefaction at this multi-page mailing from Blue Cross Advantage--our Medicare supplemental insurance.
Two of these flashy, splashy accordion-folded notices arrived Saturday, one for me and one for John. I opened mine at once, hoping to hear that perhaps coverage had been expanded or something.
Nope. This whole hoorah was simply to inform us that we would be getting new cards with different numbers. Information that would have fit nicely on a postcard.
I'd like to know what this mailing cost Blue Cross--and what the post card would have cost.
And the rates keep going up.
