Slop posts go in c/slop. Don't post low-hanging fruit here.
It's crazy how much doctors seem to be lawyers arguing against the insurance companies on behalf of patients, instead of actually being able to treat and care for the patients. Can't imagine, that's why anyone in medicine chose that career and put in the work for it. And it costs society a lot of money as well, to actually educate and train people to become doctors. It's almost like the profit motive shouldn't guide medical care.
I can’t help but think, to what extent is work done to essentially tell people “no” when they try to access a good or service?
Beyond this, there’s an actual customer service term called ‘sludge’ which is all about trying to frustrate the customer into not bothering with their request. Whether it be hiding behind layers of automated bots or by explicitly telling customer service providers to just act stupid.
Any type of DRM does this. Copyright, subscription services, approval processes, etc. all exist to slow the rate you can just do things. I wonder when the last time the TSA did something effectual (instead of panopticon related) was.
Imagine how much more money would go to doctors without having to pay people entire decent salaries just to deny people coverage
Been through tons of specialists, Dr's, pharmacists and nursing assistants who are constantly having to fight just to give care to those they're taking care of. Hell one time I needed specific meds we spent longer looking through options to see if anything would be fully covered than diagnosis.
At this point insurance is simply here to drag out anything. They don't even care about if it makes sense when denying or rejecting.
Capitalism: the most efficient system ever
Btw unrelated but maybe a month ago I read about a guy in China whose head was nearly totally decapitated by an industrial robot who they managed to save and reattach his fucking spine
Not once did the article talk about who paid for it, huh
How can you deny claims on ICU patients? Beds are super limited down there and its a last resort. If an ICU patient shouldn't have even been in a hospital bed literally dozens of professionals would have to make clerical errors or something. Its inconcievable.
:inconceivable:
Yes, but statistically some of those professionals will be too busy trying to save peoples' lives to dispute the denied claim, which will make the line go up
: Why kiddo? Because we CAN! That’s why! It’s MY business and I can do what I want! Muh freeeeeeeedumz! Why do you hate freedumz?!?!?”
"Coma patient? DENIED! It's not like they're going to fight it!"
Uphold Universal Healthcare!

Behind many a commie is a disappointed capitalist.
Unironically, what fully pushed me to red territory is how ‘capitalism’ and ‘the free market’ aren’t really synonyms. Arguably, capitalism is just syndicalism but the capitalist class organizes to advance their interests.
What people need to do is actively refuse employers and plans that use UHC. Ask it in the interview process. Then walk out if they do.
UHC plan?
