[puglover]

Oo nga pala iba iba. Sana covered

Im hoping someone can recommend a pedia, kaysa basta nalang ako pipili sa list of doctors

maxicare pareho yung mga pedia ng dalawang anak ko pero hindi ko sila mare-recommend. hehe. nakakahiya kasi baka hindi mo magustuhan. okay naman sila pero hindi ako 100% satisfied. naghahanap din nga ako ng pwedeng lipatan. pag may nakita ka, sis, share mo dito ha.

I was very disappointed with our first utilization under Maxicare.  For the longest time, our company is under a different HMO provider, since cost is a factor, we opted to transfer however, we went back after a full contract year due to dissatisfied employees.

As HR practitioner and the main POC for our healthcare benefits, I tried Maxicare without any preferential treatment.  This way, I can see how good or bad their services are.  Since inpatient kami (daughter was confined) very swift naman ang pag admit, their LO even visited my daughter sa room.  Then come discharge day, we've been waiting for like almost 4 hours and the LOA has not been approved from Maxicare's end - super bagal, eto din ang complaints ng employees namin.  So as not to incur additional charges and para makauwi na, I called our Account Officer to help me out, ayun, wala pang 5 minutes cleared na kami and nakalabas na ng hospital.  If hindi pa ako tumawag, we would wait pa for hours which I think is a very bad service.  So the next time my daughter needed medical attention, nasa bahay pa lang ako nagpa endorse na ako sa AO ng company to make sure that we are treated properly.  The next day, they sent a flower basket and Maxi-bear. Kala ng ibang Maxicare patients and even our pedia, standard ni Maxicare yun.  Napa smile na lang ako, kasi ng I'm from HR.

@puglover, if you're near Marikina Valley, highly recommended ko si Dr. Chanyungco.  Super galing!

any recommendation for a pedia practicing in st. luke's qc? yung magaling, mabait at mura lang ang vaccines. mahal ng vaccines ng pedia ni baby ngayon.

^try Dr. Nancy Kwan-Cu at Medical Arts Bldg. 3rd floor.  Though medyo higher rate nya ng vaccines, magaling naman talaga sya.  Pedia namin sya for 9yrs now   Just tell her recommend ka ng mom ni Sophie thru internet

Buhayin ko lang 'tong thread plan ko kasi mag apply pero stay-at-home mom ako and di pa kami kasal ng long time partner ko. Meron kasi siya Maxicare at ang beneficiary yung anak lang namin since di ako pwedeng ilagay.

Pinapakuha na rin kasi ako ng "husband" ko  lagi naman ako hesitant baka di ma approve since unemployed ako.ano po ba tingin niyo? Gusto namin na kunin ko yung Gold sana.kelan ba pwede gamitin yun once approved ka na? Thanks!!

^ hi sis, pagkakaalam ko kapag individual account as soon as you pay the premium e approved naman na yun. may choice ka whether quarterly, annually or biannually. anyway, visit their site nalang kasi complete info naman dun.

IMO, mas expensive maxicare but I prefer medicard more, mas affordable pa. yun nga lang, annual payments lang tinatanggap ng medicard pero for me, mas sulit.

HI! Pwede bang makakuha ng Maxicare kahit Unemployed? Gusto ko kasi kumuha ng ako ang Principal Holder kaya lang di ako sure kung pwede yun..Thanks!
