Just got an email from Aetna, my health insurance provider through the University of Chicago, which, by the way, is probably the worst fathomable insurance coverage ever, especially considering I have handed over my life to work for the institution and generally be its bitch, thanking me for “choosing” them and letting me know that I am enrolled in their Vital Savings dental program for the period 9/1/2005–8/31/2006 and that I will be receiving a permanent ID card, for which I have been anxiously but patiently waiting for nearly three long years, in the mail 10-15 days from now.

Good to know. Thanks Aetna! I bet my ridiculous copays, especially those for “unannounced” ER visits, won’t be any cheaper though! I don’t hate you any less! But at least I will have my three-year-old policy’s card now.
