Casual reminder that it’s never not healthcare CEO season.
By this logic, I’m wondering if beds are medically necessary.
Or maybe the CEOs could just donate their limbs - after all, if artificial ones aren’t necessary, are true limbs really?
“Limbs aren’t necessary.”

Which insurers? I truly cannot find this in the article
Some quick googling shows anthem and UHC (shocker) have been specific culprits with this, being the subject of legal action (Atzin, et al. v. Anthem, Inc., et al., Case No.: 2:17-cv-6816 ODW (PLAx) and Trujillo and Harden v. Unitedhealth Grp. Inc., et al., Case No. SACV 17-2547-JFW (KKx) (C.D. Cal. 2019)) regarding their denial of claims.
Helpful?
Maybe…just fucking maybe…basic human needs like healthcare should not be for-profit.
