djehuti , 4 months ago to news in ‘Make money by denying care’: new US rules aim to curb use of approval by private health insurances

Which is why I’ve long said that to solve the US problems we need to remove the tax breaks for company sponsored health insurance. Once that happens I can actually decide which insurance company is the best for me.
