Senator Grassley noted that this policy has low maximums and the problem occurs if you become real sick. That will never show up in a patient satisfaction survey.

There is an article on p.29 of the May 2009 (2008?) Consumer Reports, in which the AARP policies run by United Healthcare are pointed out as particularly bad, giving examples of how particular patients were screwed, and mentioning Senator Grassley’s attack.
But those are not Medigap policies, whose terms are set by the Government. The AARP/United Healthcare policies are marketed to those not yet eligible for Medicare.
