No employees — be they the people who answer customer calls or nurses who visit patients in their homes — should have to fear for their and their loved ones’ safety.
The subtle implication that all the vitriol is directed at front line workers instead of the executive team is infuriating and calculated.
Health care is both intensely personal and very complicated, and the reasons behind coverage decisions are not well understood. We share some of the responsibility for that.

I would argue that it is a communication problem. If the insurers actually told us what they don’t cover we would refuse to pay and that would drive down prices.
More communication and understanding is exactly what we need. I shouldn’t need a lawyer to understand what my insurance covers.
