My mother paid into Met Life Long Term care insurance for severl years prior to her death and she never collected a dime. The Hospice social worker told us that in her ten years of doing social care for the elderly, she has only seen 2 people collect the long term care. Most die within the required wait period. A complete rip off. Its a rip off. My mother paid into Met Life Long Term care insurance for severl years prior to her death and she never collected a dime.

]]> Comment on Analyzing Patient Assistance Programs for Multiple Sclerosis: AVONEX and AVONEX Services by Evelyn http://msactivism.org/2010/11/11/analyzing-patient-assistance-programs-for-ms-avonex-and-avonex-services/comment-page-1/#comment-2318 Evelyn Sun, 29 Jan 2012 16:52:13 +0000 http://msactivism.org/?p=190#comment-2318 I began taking Avonex in December. Used my 4 free shts, meanwhile trying to get assistance in paying $1,000 co-pay. Avonex Services referred me to NORD which I've called twice . Both times I was told a form would be mailed. Called Avonex & told 2 more shots would be provide free of charge... Still waiting. So far missed 1 scheduled shot and now trying to find assistance. Avonex Services not really helping as much as I thought. Their website makes it sound as if they will assist with insurance issues but I am ef with the impression that they are reading cue cards & are unable do deal with anything other than typical issues.

Group long term disability insurance is simply a bogus product. And yes, it should either be highly regulated or taken off the market. Please let us know how it works out for you.
