Insurance company denies a needed PET scan on a patient with brand new diagnosis of pancreas cancer with equivocal CTs and MRIs. Guy pays premiums forever, now he’s got the most serious diagnosis he can get, and they deny his care to “save” 2k.

Follow the money. Think how much cheaper healthcare would be without this chicanery! 😵💫
Unfortunately, I have no faith in our govt to fix something that the insurance lobby’s dollars in lawmakers pockets helped create.
