You're over-simplifying this. With the private coverage, you don't know you're not covered until your insurance company denies the claim. I see it all the time. Folks then go through whatever ombudsman or review panel is available while they deplete their savings, sell their house ASAP, max out their credit cards to pay for treatment.
Yes, sometime life isn't fair and when folks get dealt a bad hand they should play the cards they have. What I want stopped is the insurance companies dealing from the bottom of the deck to save a buck while they "race" a was-covered person's mortality. This is sick and heartless stuff. Sadly, you can't shop insurance based on what might happen to you. They'll promise coverage as they cash your premiums, then deny coverage when they are called on for expensive service. With government coverage, you get to see behind the curtain. I see behind it all the time with the other Socialist things like the VA and Medicare. -Bret On Fri, Sep 25, 2009 at 1:55 PM, Casey Wheeler <[email protected]>wrote: > No because it is the nature of those panels.
