Network Sheep In Colorado:-(

This is a reminder why joining networks is very unhealthy for the industry.

So we had a hailstorm in Colorado this week.

Can anyone of you that are network members let us know if the big SL

referred any work to you?

They are scheduling 3 weeks out cannot get a job scheduled for 3 weeks folks.

Do you think for a second to help out the insured's they might be alittle

sympathetic and call upon the network sheep to refer their over flow to

so that these customers that cannot drive their cars can get serviced right

away? No, are you kidding me, we wouldn't want to help anyone that might

damage our brand. Think about it folks what you are a member of:-))))))

Keep joining and help destroy the industry, some day you will need them

for employment as you will be forced out of the business by your friendly

neighborhood TPA/Competitor.

That's right boy's and girls their looking to take it all...............

But if you were not really ever so grateful for those pitiful crumbs and scraps that they toss you like a dog you wouldn't do it. I'm sure you adhere to the generous pricing they allow you to bill them and I hope you will keep being a dutiful network participant so some day you will be rich beyond your wildest dreams.

So were going to go down the direct bill road conversation. Well, as we see it here in glass land it seems that the direct billing route is a route of uncertainty and legal headaches trying to get paid. The insured will then be punished for you jack wipes billing like you went to college and are doctors or something. The assignment of benefits doesn't give someone a right to bill whatever you feel your worth or you need to bill that one job like it was your retirement plan.
The article recently about the assignment of benefits giving some shop the right to bill like 12k for 3 windshields was pretty interesting and shows what abuse can come from some shops and the insured will never use your services again.

So--- If you do not use NAGS and go thru a tpa, that means you are going to charge 12k for 3 windshields. I see. Thanx for 'splainin.

Lawn services manage to bill customers competitive prices or go out of business. So do carpenters. But we are a bunch of "jack wipes" who need outsiders to keep us in line? Hillary must have been right and we "jack wipes" must just be deplorable rabble.
