Dear @amyklobuchar, @keithellison, and @MNCommerce, This is a story about @BCBSIL and how they are putting one of your (MN) residents in harm& #39;s way.
I am a multi-time cancer survivor. My body at this point, seems to get cancer yearly. I am seen at @MayoClinic.

This bill has been pulled back from collection multiple times. I& #39;ve begged and pleaded with both @BCBSIL and @MayoClinic to communicate more effectively so I don& #39;t go through this every month.
I had colorectal cancer surgery in September. Mayo submitted the bill.

Month after month, BCBS denied the bill. First it was because we "didn& #39;t have an active policy." (We did.) Then it was, "disallowed." And finally, they refused to pay stating we didn& #39;t have insurance. (We did.)
But it gets worse.

I can& #39;t get my follow-up scans, (which are overdue and desperately needed) because my $15k bill shows outstanding.
Keep in mind, our max. out of pocket with @BCBSIL is $4.5k as a family. We already hit that prior.

So, right now, in America, my insurance is refusing to pay my cancer bills. @MayoClinic is making me jump through crazy hoops to get it resubmitted (AGAIN for the fourth time) and I am without care.

I am exhausted. (Truly) of going through this. I have been on the phone with @BCBSIL for HOURS upon HOURS. I have tried everything in my playbook to get this done so I can get care.
Help.
Help.
