reminder that it would be cheaper for the US govt to pay for your medical care than it is for them to pay insurance corporations to deny your medical care
@seachanger It's a very weird feeling when your oncologist says to you "We are just waiting for insurance approval" for a treatment. So the insurer dictates standards of care. That is incredibly dangerous imho.
@sullybiker as I’ve noted before, when I went through cancer treatment I spent far more time on the phone fighting the insurance company than I did talking to my doctors about my treatment. I was wrongly charged for my lumpectomy, mastectomy, and chemo and had to fight hard to get coverage for all three
