I applaud the notion of being prudent… I applaud the notion of being prudent with scarce health care dollars. However, a mistake on Sidecar's part (duplicating an existing expense when they requested additional info which I uploaded) somehow couldn't be fixed by them, leaving me on the hook for almost $1,200 of lab services that had already been paid for. After 48 minutes on the phone trying to remedy the situation, the supervisor to whom I requested a transfer stuck to his script and wished me a great rest of my day. As if. So I cancelled my household's participation that day. Reached out on social media with no response. Terribly disappointing overall. EDIT: Prompt received wouldn't allow comments to be added. Tagged Sidecar on LinkedIn and X. Have already spoken with "Member Care" and got exactly nowhere. Feels like more of the same. Disappointing and frustrating.

Way better than my employer given plan Highly recommend this company! I have had insurance with leading commercial companies and though it was employer paid, it was and HMO with high deductible. I went part time, 24 hours a week and become ineligible. I also run my own business and came upon Sidecar while searching for an answer. The marketplace options were absurd for what they offered. I am so glad I lost my other coverage, this is so much better!

I think Sidecar is great I think Sidecar is great. You can customize your plan to fit your budget. They send reminders to submit your invoices, which is very helpful. Everything is pretty straightforward and easy to understand. You can even change or cancel your plan at any time, so there is no long-term commitment required. I truly recommend it to anybody I know who is uninsured and looking for affordable options.

I have been with Sidecar for a year I have been with Sidecar for a year, and the first few transactions where good. However, even when you ask your provider for an itemized bill, and they say, here is your itemized bill, Sidecar won't always accept what you provide to them. I had a chiropractor I had been going to for 10 years, and they said his rate was too high, which isn't the case, his rate is pretty standard for the area. Secondly, if I switch to another provider, they will require xrays, and initial assessment, before they will provide service, which will ultimately cost more. I am skeptical of Sidecar after a year, however, I rarely visit the doctors, so if I were anyone consider Sidecar, go with a higher deductable and pay less out of pocket and pay cash for cheaper services because they won't likely give you the full amount or barely any towards your deductable. So you may as well pay a lower premium each month.

Great Customer Service! When I accidentally submitted the incorrect invoice, the customer service representative was a huge help! I had accidentally put an invoice in for the wrong date, I was charged $170, so I was reasonably confused and stressed out. After I described my problem, the woman on the phone connected me to someone else, and I explained the situation to the lovely person--I wish I got her name--and she let me know how I can email to get the credit back once I got the correct invoice. She was super sweet and bubbly, an absolute star. I did as she said and I got my $170 in credit. Great experience overall. So far I'm really happy to have Sidecar; I'd have no other way to afford therapy which I've needed for so long.
