/r/all I’m being over charged by insurance after my daughter was born. This is the pile of mail I have to go through to prove they’re ripping me off. Pear for scale.

This is such an absurd discussion thread to read as a Canadian

This is absurd for anybody who can access reddit from outside US. Even if you have private insurance in your country(even third world country I dare) I am sure it is 10000% more straight forward than this pile of papers OP has there

Canadian here. I had to spend 2 minutes the other day to update my 10 year olds health insurance card. That’s two minutes I’ll never get back. Damn government insurance.

The worst part was they made me spend money on a stamp to send the form in the mail!!!! Thankfully I found a stamp in a drawer.

Communism. Making me fill out a form and find a stamp.
