At least some health insurance companies are temporarily easing up on denials or pausing shitty policies like limiting anthensia coverage during surgery.
That alone could save a few hundred lives, even if just for a little while.

Anthem is one member of the BCBS insurance group. Hell, they compete with another member in California! (Blue Shield of California)
