Today, I found out my insurance company denied my claim because they had me marked down as "male" and yet also pregnant. I now have to prove to them that I'm actually a woman. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I applied for a dental insurance that claims "you cannot be denied". I was denied. FML
Today, I found out that my insurance canceled my contract, claiming I hadn't paid, even though I had. I only discovered this because I backed into a car. FML
Today, I was denied membership to an all-women's gym. Why? Because "men are not permitted to join". I am and have always been female. FML
Today, I went to my insurance company to deal with some paperwork. One of their employees backed into my car before I made it into the building. FML
Today, my health insurance refuses to pay for either contraceptives or the small surgery to get my tubes tied, even with a doctor’s note confirming I need it. They are quite happy, however, to pay for any number of abortions, subsequent therapy, and/or complications during childbirth. FML
Today, I arrived at the doctor's to schedule surgery to find out my insurance got canceled again. I only just got it reinstated after the last time they screwed up and canceled it. It took me 6 months to get it fixed. FML
Today, I went to the doctor, because I've been having stomach pains and nausea for weeks. He ended up gravely telling me I'm pregnant. I freaked out and panicked about what my parents would say. Then his laughter reminded me that I'm a guy. A really stupid one. FML
Today, I called a doctor's office for a referral. I was in public, so when she asked me what type of issue I had, I mumbled that I had a vaginal issue. After painstakingly having to repeat this several times, she said she was asking what kind of insurance I have. FML
Today, I had to use my driver's license to convince the security guard at a game room that I was a girl. FML
Today, a stranger had a go at me for smoking while pregnant. I'm a guy. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

God then where does the stupidity end. Eventually they're going to ask someone for proof of not being a squirrel.

If it is their error, wich it probably is, then they can not deny a claim. Get a lawyer.

Birth certificate will clear it up.

My sister had the exact same thing happening to her. She couldn't get some things done because she was listed as a man living with another man. Which is pretty ****** up in its own way. How they make these mistakes is beyond me.

Well that's annoying. Probably won't be too hard to fix though. First, take a deep breath. Second just call up your doctor's office, Politely explain the problem and ask if they can send the info to your insurance company. His staff will probably sort it all out for you so you don't even need to talk to him. At worst you'll have to call the insurance company and find out where they want the info sent and pass that along but they probably already know. Then grab some popcorn and watch Junior.

I went through a similar experience. My insurance company wouldn't cover my birth control because for some reason they had me down as a man. Wtf?!? Who names their son Rose??
