Quote from Trader5287:
"Tales unravel about how a successful medical claim is called a "medical loss" by the insurance industry and how denying claims can lead to promotions in that industry. The film details how the health industry spent more than $100 million to defeat President Clinton's universal health care package and currently maintains four D.C. lobbyists for every member of Congress."
Beautiful.
Quote from Vinny1:
If an insurance company denies a claim, most of the time the patient just decides to not pay the doctor. So really the doctors take the hit.

Quote from monistat7:
which is why many hospitals will not give you treatment without squaring away your insurance first. if you dont have a referral, forget about seeing a specialist unless you pay cash.
and many advanced doctors like neuropsychologists dont even take insurance. they can afford to be selective with who they save.
Quote from Vinny1:
How do 45 million people in this country without insurance get treated then? That's like 1 out of 6 people in the country that don't have insurance. Quite a large number, but it's understandable; either they pay for health insurance and starve to death by not buying food, or take their chances, go without health insurance, and use the money to buy food. Not a hard choice at all.
