Subject:: Is Your HMO Cheap ?   

 TOP TEN SIGNS YOU'VE JOINED A CHEAP 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 Fudgsicles.

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

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

 5. Your "primary care physician" is wearing the pants you gave to Goodwill last month.

 4. The sign stating: "The patient is responsible for 200% of 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 differentcolors with little "M"s on them.

 And the Number 1 Sign You've Joined a Cheap HMO is:

 1. You ask for Viagra; you get a Popsicle stick and duct tape.
