Ten top indicators that your employer has changed to a cheaper HMO

10. Your annual breast exam is done at Hooters.

9. Directions to your doctor's office include "Take a left when you enter
the trailer park."

8. The tongue depressors taste faintly of Fudgesicles.

7. The only proctologist in the plan is "Gus" from Roto-Rooter.

6. The only item listed under Preventative Care coverage is "An apple a day."

5. Your primary care physician is wearing the pants you gave to the Salvation Army last month.

4. The statement saying, "The patient is responsible for 200% of all out-of-network-charges" is not a typo.

3. The only expense covered 100% is embalming.

2. With your last HMO, your Prozac didn't come in different colors, with little M's on them.

1. And the number 1 sign your healthcare provider is a "really cheap" HMO...is...You ask for Viagra; you get a Popsicle stick and duct tape.

:D
