Every since I enrolled in Medicare, United Healthcare has been emailing, and calling me to schedule a House Call. This is being pitched as a benign visit by a health professional, presumably someone that represents United Healthcare to discuss my state of health and how to utilize my health plan to address any identified issues, but I am naturally suspicious of their benevolent tones.
All of us who pay attention understand that we now are living in a surveillance state. This unelected, and in my view unconstitutional 4th branch of government is trying to put all citizens under their thumb. Could it be that these so call health professional is scripted to ask clever questions designed to determine our political bent, vaccination status, to ascertain our stance on issues now labeled as subversively obdurate to a Marxist ideology.
Proverbs 21:23 tells us "Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps himself out of trouble." By aged wisdom I have come to know that corporate representatives represent corporate (gov) interest. Because of this I am naturally suspicious that this United Healthcare offering angled to benefit me, is instead a sirens song luring me to my own demise.
My consistent reply thus far to UHC has been, not interested. I'll call you when I need something.
Any of you older patriots go through this process?
I had Aetna. They insisted 'their policy, my plan' for home health visit. At first I said I was burglarized 2 times before so now I dont let anyone other than family in. They said a nurse with all ID and credentials will come. I said O yeah, 1 person who robbed me was a nurse, the other was a minister.
Then since covid I would tell them if I couldnt see a doctor when I needed one, then I cant see a nurse when you need it done. (its only free for me because they collect from Medicare for the visit)
I get at least 30 calls a day from some Medicare plan center. I have fun with them. 1- they have an old address for me so I call them frauds 2-they ask if I own or rent so I ask them if they do, which is better, what neighborhood do you live in. 3-they ask my age. I say if you are from Medicare you know my age. 4-why are you asking me personal questions. For calls today I will stop them and say 'hold on' then just set the phone down until they hang up.
Just yesterday was talking with someone about this. She said she calls them back 10 times. When they finally asks why (they have some way to see) she says you waste my time, I waste yours more.
Keep in mind if you didnt initiate the request there is a VERY good chance its a scam.
Wow 30 calls a day, that is outright harassment. I was getting a good amount of RNC calls from 202 area code so I downloaded an app named Truecaller that allows me to block numbers by wildcard value. Like I can block any number that starts 1-202 which I do, or I could block numbers like 1-202-998-xxx. It's free so I get an add every now and then but definitely worth the trouble.
Sounds like you're having fun with it so good for you.
Thanks for the advice. Problem is I get calls from all over the US,
