(per letter to customer-me)
Effective 03/08/2014 INOVA Mt Vernon Hospital will no longer accept Humana's regional PPO. We switched to that PPO for 2013; had had PFFS and are checking to see if that plan will be accepted.
I have a call out to our Humana rep to see if (as I suspect) this includes the entire INOVA system or just Mt Vernon (nearest to home).
Our Kaiser-Permanente plan cut it’s relationship with INOVA, too, leaving Virginia Medical Center in Arlington as it’s only associated hospital in NoVa. That’s bad for us here in western Fairfax County, as the nearest plan hospital is now over 20 miles away.
And the Virgninia Medical Center is going to reach overload on or about March 9.
My Humana rep did call back and confirmed it’s ALL of the INOVA hospitals (don’t they go out to Loudoun?) Man, am I thankful to all those friends and family who brought us to this day by voting for Obama, M. Warner, etc. How fun will it be as the greatly mocked “death panels” hit home!
Just heard a INOVA radio ad on wtop saying Kaiser is out! I’ve never heard an ad like that before!
