People getting pretty irritated at UHC with the highest denial rate in the industry.
Somebody probably lost a loved one and possibly got bankrupted. .
And in other health insurance news recently, Blue Cross Blue Shield of several states said that they will not completely pay for anesthesiologists services during surgery over a certain length of time

Gotta make those profit numbers for the company's stock option plans!

Nothing to do with health care/treatment should be included in the stock market...nothing! How pathetic is it to sit back and take money off those who are ill or in need of treatment?
That being said, I believe personally that the Medicare Advantage for which so many of you have signed up to get the cheap "goodies", good luck. This coverage has been exhaustingly pushed this sign up season because once they get the majority of seniors on this plan, they will do away with original Medicare. And then, we are all back to the same scenario of battling private insurance companies for coverages.
The more we age, how capable are we to fight for healthcare, coverages and medications? Why do you think sales representatives receive greater reimbursement for every Advantage plan they sell vs regular Medicare plan with a supplemental plan?
Many hospitals and physicians won't care for Medicare Advantage patients and have dropped out of the plan now due to "insurance managed health care treatments" that are occurring.
