Nothing against the app, what I don’t like is that I have a doctor I can see in person, but my insurance wants me to use a web provider or they won’t cover the medication my doctor prescribed. So I download the app and deal with the new people who tell me that I have to use a third party company that has its own app they will check in with their app and then they will let my insurance company know that I have been spending enough time on their apps trying to find “engagements” that qualify to keep me approved 3 levels below the insurance I selected. So now instead of getting exercise I spend time with my face in my phone and my stress level up because I need 8 green bubbles or my $49 prescription is now $489. All so I download 2 more apps, and “it would be easier” if I “had” a wearable so that location service could be turned on and the app could track things for people that I don’t want to be involved with in the first place. I have a problem, I saw a doctor, and I was too young to have that problem and my old insurance would not cover the testing because I was too young. I got a better doctor that fought for me. I got new insurance that listened to me and my doctor, was honest and I paid more for some things and less for a lot. But they are no longer offered. I have new insurance again and now they have a partner who has a partner, and if I’m not in all of their apps enough I can’t get the same care that I would get if I spend my time hanging out on their apps just reviewing unrelated information and wasting my time.
So not the app that needs review, the system that made me need 3 apps to provide more personal information unrelated to what I need multiple someone’s approvals for to get the care and medication to hopefully outlive my mothers, grandfathers, and many great uncles who left behind young kids at early ages because “too young” to have that problem, and can’t just trust the doctor who sees me 4 times a year, I need to be in everyone app and wearing a tracker so I can “earn” green bubbles to make the thing that might keep me alive to see my kids drive, graduate, and surpass my wishes for them.
