This is frustrating. (Meant as reply to main thread/everyone.)

Thanks very much for the advice. I'm going to be bookmarking this thread and keeping all replies in mind as I go through the process. Right now, I'm starting with looking at the providers list and trying to find an available doctor. The first two weren't accepting new patients, and the third was someone different than the name listed on the BCBS website - super friendly, but a therapist, not an MD.
That leaves me with a long list of names at the local hospital, which has family clinics and things like that. It's a really good hospital, so I think most local doctors tend to want to work there? But Sareitha said not to go that route...
(Unfortunately, I don't really know anyone I can ask for a referral because all my friends in town are uni students and would simply go to the uni clinic.)

One other thing you should be aware of

You might want to call your insurer and talk to them about who to see.

Do you think an actual person would have better referrals than the website?

I don't think we'll be able to do you much good.

For CU, that list seems to be really outdated.

It was funny, because most of them were medical-ish, but I got a bariatric center, a therapist...

I agree, the needy should be helped.

I don't agree with your characterization of commonly proposed healthcare solutions.

I don't think he's mischaracterizing anything so much as responding to Jens' point directly.

As a response to Jens' point, it works, but he used very general language.

Have you never looked at the boatloads of information that your insurer has surely sent to you? *NM*

I've never been sent a thing from them...

I believe, although I no longer am covered by Blue Cross, that most tests are covered.

Yes, and just in general, it's good to have a GP. But they are elusive creatures. Like unicorns. *NM*
