Right now, you call the insurance company on her card, or call a doctors office who is possibly a provider. They will be able to tell you. The same thing happened to my sister, and we found out that a mosquito had bit her on her eyelid only it didn't itch her at all, just swelled up, then went away.

Right now I would call them myself if I could, but I tried that yesterday and they wouldn't talk to me....him and I were never married. :-( She came back from camp with it....I figured it was one of the 25 mosquito bites she had gotten while at camp...but it has been weeks now and is not going away....it doesn't bother her at all either.

Right now ... Eris, my son's father & I were never married either but my son is covered under his father's insurance. If your daughters father has her covered under his insurance, you have every right as her mother to call & find a provider in your area who can take care of her medical needs. Make that call!

Legally, as her legal guardian and custodial parent, they have to give you this information. It's a medical issue and if they don't, sniff sniff, do I smell lawsuit.... Let them know that if they don't talk to you, they can talk to your lawyer.

Right now ... no need to raise hell Eris. Just give them the medical id number and let them know you need to find a provider in your area. Eris, don't rely on your daughters father for information. He's looking out for himself. Make the call. Funny story ... my son's father remarried, then she got smart & divorced him. Well I called his health provider for something and the rep said "oh hello Mrs. Whatever" and I was like "no I'm his son's mother". It shut him up and he gave me the info I needed. How dare they assume!!!

Right now, I tried calling them yesterday and was told they couldn't discuss his benefits with me....I just called again and was told the same damn thing. My ex gave me his log in information again to access the information online just now and I reviewed his evidence of coverage....it does look like our only option is to go to ER or Urgent Care and even then we only get a discount....im guessing in the long run it will just be easier for me to take her to a Dr. here that will allow me to pay privately, and then just charge it. Grrr....gonna try that benadryl first though!

Right now ... what good is having health insurance for your daughter if your unable to use it. Believe me I've been through this. Wrong, wrong, wrong! He needs to give you all of the healthcare information & add your name to his account so you can access it. I'm sorry your going through this.

RN I'm relying on you tomorrow morning, Mocha!! ;) RN the reason I'm excited for the weekend is that I'm in my best buddies wedding! Even though I have to leave DH behind for the weekend, I am excited to see my best buddy and his future wife. They are both really good friends. They even argued over who got to have me stand up for them. LOL Anywho, they chose the traditional route, I'm the matron of honor. I will have pictures, of course, of me in my purdy dress. LOL Anywho, I also get to see my best friend (and her brand new left hand rock) after the wedding saturday. I will leave about noon tomorrow, so.. yeah, hurry it up! LOL

RN I am officially stressed! I just got a call from my sister, she has to do an overnight with her job and she needs me to babysit my nephew. My sister is a assistant manager of a group home for troubled teen girls and they are getting a new girl in the house today, who abuses and kills animals and molests little children. Being this little girl is a 13 year old sociopath and going to be in this house with the other girls and my sister too stresses me out. Plus my great nephew is 3 years old and a total handful and I will have him from 530pm tonight, till 9 pm tomorrow evening, so what work I have to get done to get ready for the show and rehearsals isn't going to get done. My sister would have taken him to work with her, but with this new girl coming in, he would have been in danger and her other babysitter is sick. Geez, it is going to be a stressful next few days. Well I better get my butt a bustin on what I can get done before I pick him up.
