Medical forms suck

Medical forms are amazingly painful to fill out. If there was ever a field that is in need of some serious work, it's the field of producing medical forms. Every one is insanely complicated, and uses giant words that nobody understands. And even better, most of the time you're expected to fill it out wrong, and nobody cares anyway, so what's the point? Rarely have I gotten called out on skipping some fields that I don't understand.

Then there's the whole insurance situation. I was just filling out a form that they actually asked me what my co-pay was. Hah! Yeah, right, as if I have any idea! There are a ridiculous number of different categories of co-pays, and I have no clue what this would fall into.

So you don't understand what they are asking, the terms they use don't match up with the your insurance or the rest of society, and your insurance is impossibly complicated too - what could make it worse yet? Way to raise the bar guys, you made the form physically impossible to write on too!! Good work, you gave me little parenthesis that I can write my area code into...except NOBODY CAN WRITE THAT SMALL!!! Are you serious right now? And am I the only person that has a street address longer than "Main St."? Because that's about all that will fit on that address line.

It's not that hard to come up with a reasonable form people. Do you think that just because you can fit it onto one page instead of two, that magically makes it not suck? "Oh, at least it's only one page, that makes it all better." That would be completely wrong. Just look at the form. Fix it. Ugh.

I can't wait until I'm 80 and can't comprehend complete sentences, then this will be even more fun.
