Recently I’ve seen some ads that IHOP was changing their name to IHOb which I thought was pretty dumb. Why play with an iconic brand that everyone knows what it means? Of course, it was only a gimmick to underscore that IHOP has some “pretty good” burgers … so good in fact that they should change their name. HA HA! Funny, but obviously they would never do such a thing.

Many people have a misconception of how out-of-network health insurance benefits work. While having out-of-network benefits is a good feature, the most important feature of provider networks is knowing the number of in-network participating providers your health insurer has. When using out-of-network benefits the consumer is commonly forced to pay a “balance bill” from their provider. A balance bill is the difference between what a provider charges a patient and what the insurance company reimburses the out-of-network provider as an allowable charge. This difference can sometimes be in the thousands of dollars. On the contrary, when a patient visits an in-network provider, the provider is bound to accept the insurance carrier’s allowable reimbursement limit, and therefore the patient is not faced with a balance bill. Buyer beware, it’s important to know your health insurance carrier’s network of participating providers.

Q: We have a new intern – the daughter of one of the owners. It’s an unpaid internship, but I thought those were illegal. Should we be paying her for the work she performs?
