Ask HN: Are you underutilizing your insurance too?

2•nemath•1h ago
Yesterday, I had this thought of not using my insurance to full potential last year. So since this year is just starting out and I have a KP insurance I decided to understand what am I missing out on. I realized there's a lot. I had no clue that lot of preventive visits, tests are offered for free generally. I decided to then make up a custom GPT just for me to continue understanding it and have it give me a rough timeline of preventive test/visits that I should be doing this quarter. I ended up booking an appointment yesterday and have rough plan for this month which is going to cost me little to nothing. Have you thought about this?

Edit: All I initially had was a 100 page doc of my benefits that I never looked at by virtue of being lazy. So I dumped this in and gave it a task to optimize for cost and preventive tests.

Why does this require an LLM? Insurance companies either outline this effectively on their site as they want you to do preventative appointments or you can just call them to get the resources.

I always resisted looking at their website/doc with long list of numbers/tests. This was easier.

Did you check if the results are hallucinated?

They were pretty good, I also used ChatGPT health that OpenAI released few days back which is said to be more grounded. So I wouldn't be too worried about hallucinations.
