‘They Won’t Help Me’: Sickest Patients Face Insurance Denials Despite Policy Fixes.
(kffhealthnews.org)
The insurance CEOs aren't making a spectacle of seig heiling during internationally broadcast events, or dogwhistling Nazi references on their personally owned social media platform.
No, they're just killing people for profit
Sure, they're pieces of shit too, but the previous comment was asking about the blowback against Tesla by comparison to insurance CEO assassinations.
Porque no los dos?
patients are growing impatient
uh, problem solved?
Daaad... 🙄
My friends company changed to United Health in the middle of his chemo. They denied his coverage immediately and he had to fight just to cover the littlest things. America is a failed nation. Don’t get sick. I swear you will see a different world immediately.
🎶don’t get sick
that’s right don’t get sick
if you have insurance, don’t get sick
if you don’t have insurance, don’t get sick
if you’re sick, don’t get sick
just don’t get sick
that’s the Republican healthcare plan🎶
its bs and the worse you are off the more likely you can't navigate the process.
Like some pantomime of those bizarre fictional bureaucracies seen in Beetlejuice, Loki, or at best, Monsters Inc. Imagine getting stymied, deferred, redirected, misdirected, sloughed off, and dismissed by administrators and clerks who know full-well that your life or death is on the line.
That's the reality for these people getting systematically and entirely legally fucked around, and you're right, they often don't have the resources to fight owing largely to their poor health - being subjected to unnecessary suffering as a means to get them just give up, go away, and die somewhere that no one has to see. Mangione is unequivocally a hero, these people are legitimately, maliciously evil. State and federal legislators either can't or are unwilling to stop them, but so few victims are even able to "air their grievances face-to-face" that the bulk will never see justice for what was done to them.
amen
Start burning insurance agencies (at night, we're not monsters) and Teslas. Make it cost them more to be shitty.
Why do it at night when the innocent outside-contracted immigrant cleaning crew is in there making 7 bucks an hour?
The Luigis will continue until morale improves.
