HMO HUMOR

(contributed by Steve Washam)

 

Q. What does HMO stand for?

A. This is actually a variation of the phrase,

"HEY MOE." Its roots go back to a concept

pioneered by Moe of the Three Stooges, who

discovered that a patient could be made to

forget about the pain in his foot if he was

poked hard enough in the eyes.

 

 

 

Q. I just joined an HMO. How difficult will it

be to choose the doctor I want?

 

A. Just slightly more difficult than choosing

your parents. Your insurer will provide you

with a book listing all the doctors in the

plan. These doctors basically fall into two

categories -- those who are no longer accepting

new patients, and those who will see you but

are no longer participating in the plan. But

don't worry; the remaining doctor who is still

in the plan and accepting new patients has an

office just a half-day's drive away, and a

diploma from a Third World country.

 

 

 

Q. Do all diagnostic procedures require pre-

certification?

 

A. No. Only those you need.

 

 

 

Q. Can I get coverage for my preexisting conditions?

 

A. Certainly, as long as they don't require any treatment.

 

 

 

Q. What happens if I want to try alternative

forms of medicine?

 

A. You'll need to find alternative forms of

payment.

 

 

 

Q. My pharmacy plan only covers generic drugs,

but I need the name brand. I tried the Generic

medication, but it gave me a stomach ache.

What should I do?

 

A. Poke yourself in the eye.

 

 

 

Q. What if I'm away from home and I get sick?

 

A. You really shouldn't do that.

 

 

 

Q. I think I need to see a specialist, but my

doctor insists he can handle my problem. Can

a general practitioner really perform a heart

transplant right in his office?

 

A. Hard to say, but considering that all

you're risking is the $20 co-payment, there's

no harm in giving him a shot at it.

 

 

 

Q. Will health care be different in the next

century?

 

A. No. But if you call right now, you might get

an appointment by then.

 

 

 

Johnny's next door neighbor had a baby. Unfortunately, the little

baby was born with no ears. When they arrived home from the

hospital, the parents invited Little Johnny's family to come over

and see their new baby.

Little Johnny's parents were very afraid their son would have a

wise crack to say about the baby. So, Little Johnny's dad had a

long talk with Little Johnny before going to the neighbors. He

said, "Now, son...that poor baby was born without any ears. I want

you to be on your best behavior and not say one word about his

ears, or I'm really going to spank your butt when we get back

home."

"I promise not to mention his ears at all," said Little Johnny.

At the neighbor's home, Little Johnny leaned over the crib and

touched the baby's hand. He looked at it's mother and said, "Oh,

what a beautiful little baby!"

The mother, who had braced herself for Johnny's comment, was

pleasantly surprised and said, "Thank you very much, Little

Johnny." He then said, "This baby has perfect little hands, feet,

then said, "Why...just look at his pretty little eyes... Did his

doctor say he can see good?"

The Mother a bit bewildered, hesitantly replies "Why, yes...his

doctor said he has 20/20 vision, why do you ask?"

Little Johnny said, "Well, it's a good thing, cause that little

sucker can't wear glasses.”
