We are not allowed to ever tell somebody to call 1-800-Medicare. We always tell them if they need to update their Medicare info, they need to contact their local social security office? Why? Two reasons: 1.) it’s true, if you need to make any updates to Medicare; eg name change, got accidentally termed, etc, social security actually handles all that. But 2.) Because it directly counts against us.

See, Medicare has this really stupid practice. If a Medicare member contacts 1-800-Medicare and gives their insurance company’s name, it automatically is a ding against them. The member could be praising us about how fantastic we were and it wouldn’t matter, if we are mentioned, we are penalized. And those penalties can affect our Star rating. That Star rating is important because that determines how much money Medicare pays us, and if we can even offer MA plans at all. If a plan has 5 stars, then people can enroll in that plan at any point in the year, Medicare will send potential members our way, and they pay us more. But if we get 3 stars, then Medicare starts sending out paperwork to all of our members telling them our plan sucks balls and they should consider finding new coverage. And if we get 1 star, Medicare revokes our right to sell Medicare Advantage products.

See, for profit insurance companies really only care about making money and one of the biggest money streams is what comes in from the federal government. So if enough people called 1-800-MEDICARE and complained about a certain health insurance company, the people could tank their star rating and actually lose them a massive revenue stream.

Let me be clear, it has to be the SPECIFIC subsidy, not just BlueCrossBlueShield, you need to pick the subsidiary, but, if you call about all of the subsidiaries BCBS owns, then you can knock out pretty much their entire MA market.

For example, here is the outside of the train station:

If you thought that they were only outside the station, think again!

The last dinosaur has a crab, because the region is known for seafood.

You can even buy coffee emblazoned with dinosaurs!

And that's not even getting into how you get to the nearby Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum. Behold, the Dino-Liner:

And if you're like, man I don't know how the museum will top all of these dinosaurs, boy do I have news for you.

And then you get to the cafe:

But, eventually, it was time to head back to the train station...on the dino bus.
