I have "good" insurance that is self-funded by my employer, so no actual financial interest for the insurance company to deny claims, and it's still a battle each and every month to get it covered, while I have no problems with advanced imaging for a chronic health issue.
- Aurornis 2y ago> I have "good" insurance that is self-funded by my employer, so no actual financial interest for the insurance company to deny claims The common way to structure self-insured plans lets the employer and insurer split any leftover money at the end of the year. So both your insurer and your employer have incentive to deny claims. That said, GLP-1 drugs are far more expensive in the US than anywhere else, so it’s amazing that we get them covered so often. In fact, that’s one of the reasons why they’re so expensive. If they weren’t covered at all for obesity, their market price would drop substantially. It’s a system full of weird incentives.
