Healthcare Bluebook

I haven’t touched this app in about a year. Today, I tried to search a procedure and it said “search limit has been reached for the month”. Uninstalling and never using this again.

I live in Fort Myers, Florida. The healthcare bluebook sounds really cool especially when doing the shared savings program that the state of Florida requires employees to do. However, when you try to look for a physician with your ZIP Code, the closest one to me is typically 30 to 40 miles away. So if anyone is looking for a doctor in the Fort Myers area, you can forget about it because there are no doctors in Fort Myers or Naples. Honestly, I don’t know how people survive.

A lot of the doctors and facilities are not updated and riddled with errors. Some offices closed years ago. Doctors moved, retired , or died still on the app. Limited, too almost zero ,search results.

I love the concept of this app but I wish you can do a state search, rather than being required to put in specific cities or at least have a distance range from the city. It would also be great if it also offered a map reward/fair price results.

The app doesn’t recognize my password and after playing the “My Bluebook Journey” to gain wellness points, the app would lock up at the end every time. I have spent two months try to resolve this problem and just deleted the app all together. When I would contact the help center they would just tell me what my company code was. Not really helpful. I can log in on my laptop.

Network Error. Network Error. Network Error. Endless Loop of Dysfunction. Privacy Nightmare. Danger, Will Robinson!

Doctors are not found

The app is an excellent idea. The entire concept is an excellent idea. The delivery is blundery and cumbersome. It takes too long to load, it has horrible lag issues. I’m grateful to look up providers and compare costs it just takes more patience than it should….

In order to register to use this app, you must type in your SS#. Are you kidding me? Not last 4, they want the entire number! We are constantly told to not share this number with anyone. Why would I mindlessly type it into a 3rd party app? When the company my husband works for offered Bluebook a couple years ago, I used it all the time to search for best cost on medical procedures. It was helpful 80% of the time, and hubby got reimbursed when we used an in network provider through Bluebook suggestions. We NEVER had to give a ss# back then? Why not ask for ins group number instead? This is outrageous. I guess we won’t be using this app to save money, because all the savings in the world simply is not worth the risk of forking over a ss# to an app and having it compromised. Geeeeeeze. 🙄 I’m appalled.

This is the very first day I’m using the app and it has already not been working. Hopefully the developers of this app will fix this issue someday soon.
