It's astounding that the care plan created by myself and my team of doctors is regularly denied by a statistician at Blue Cross Blue Shield.
This means my care is ultimately in the hands of someone with zero medical training.
Astounding.
- cmckn 3y agoI think this is the most infuriating thing about US healthcare. Your doctor thinks you need a diagnostic test to make sure you don’t have cancer? Sorry bud, random bureaucrat at Premera thinks not! But you’re welcome to spend hours of your time filing and following-up on an appeal with absolutely zero chance of a different outcome!
