Im sorry for your loss, and am going through something similar, but I think this is an oversimplification of what is a very complex problem. If it is soley a problem of chasing profits, souldn't it have been cheaper for the health insurance to take care of it with the simple laparoscopic procedure than 10 years of stage 4 care? Similarly, profits are capped as a percent of what is spent on patients, so they don't actually make more for denying care. The reality is we have a messy stochastic system for rationing care which causes a lot of unnecessary pain and confusion because there is lack of clarity on what is covered, and patients are put in the middle of negotiations between hospitals and insurance.
