Doesn't matter, it's all of them. My family has had United Healthcare, Cigna, and Anthem in the past 6 years and they're all equally bad. We've had so many issues with coverage for both of my autistic children and mental health care.

The system is designed to screw you unless you have hours of time to question every bill. Luckily my wife doesn't have a job so she can make all of these calls. In most cases we got everything resolved, but after my wife basically made this her daytime job calling about the bills and learning about how billing and coding works.

After our experience, I'm confident that no one knows what they are doing. It's all guesswork. From the doctors, to their office billing people, to the insurance. It's all fucked.

Is there an open source PDF editor? I would really love anything other than acrobat.

Dude, ages ago when I did tech support. A simple question like: "are the lights on your modem on?" was met with a yes. Then after an hour of troubleshooting you find out, in fact, no they weren't on the entire time and the modem was unplugged. Like, you lied, you never even checked. The real questions then become: why was the modem unplugged? Who unplugged it? What reason does one have for unplugging their modem?

Hate to break it to you, but they play rock from the 90s and 00s on the CLASSIC rock stations now.

I work in IT and I've been against the cloud for over a decade and I always got looks like I was crazy. We still have vendors pushing us to buy into the cloud, I'll fight tooth and nail all the way. Unfortunately, a lot of vendors aren't giving much of a choice anymore by making their services cloud only. We'll have to start building custom applications soon to keep everything on-prem.
