Jose Miller3 said:You can get this done whenever you feel like it. Even if you’re technically out on medical leave—though they might give you a hard time about it, but honestly, who cares since you aren't actually on leave anyway...
The paperwork side of things is super easy. Just find a new doctor, tell them you want to switch over to their practice, and knock out those few necessary steps whenever you have a moment.
loneheron93 said:I remember reading somewhere about what "rights" I’d be giving up if I switched to a doctor outside my neighborhood, but I can't track down the page now.
Basically, nobody in my area is taking new patients—I've checked every single local clinic possible, and they all say the same thing—even though they aren't even hitting their quotas... I actually reached out to Medicare and the director, who basically wanted me to hand over specific names of doctors so they could go "handle it" (as if?), but I really don't want to cause drama for myself or them..
But honestly, staying with my current doctor isn't an option either. There’s zero rapport there—no connection at all—and I actually feel embarrassed just asking for help.
I'm honestly stuck..

Jose Miller3 said:I’m honestly dying to know—what kind of actual rights are tied to which neighborhood here in the States? Like, is there some specific law that says you lose certain rights just based on which district you happen to live in?

Brandon Newman95 said:We talked about this before, but you don't lose anything by switching to someone else within your district. And regarding this whole mess—I disagree with you, you really should give them the names. Yeah, let them handle it. I need to dig up where I read that if doctors have fewer patients than the limit, they're required to take you on. I'll let you know for sure if it'll be an issue. If you're cool with it, shoot me a DM (PM) letting me know which neighborhood we're talking about.
Roger Sanders said:I just moved to Queens, Chicago. I’ve been hitting up different clinics, and everywhere I go, they just tell me they’re full. It's ridiculous. I have no clue how to actually find a doctor who will take on new patients. Is there some kind of master list of doctors who aren't already completely maxed out?
