Thanks for this post, Mark.

The insurance vulture's aren't playing God, they're playing the devil.

Can you see it, they are the victims.

Even though the insurance company appears to have something to answer for when it comes to not being downright customer friendly and forthcoming it more than apears that their MO is to provoke a calculated response from their customers after which they can claim that they are the victims.

TWO DIFFERENT DOCTORS' OFFICES .....

Boy, if this doesn't hit the nail on the head, I don't know what does!

Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint.

Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement.

The FIRST patient is examined within the hour,

is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week.

The SECOND sees his family doctor after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment,

then waits 8 weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray,

which isn't reviewed for another week and finally has his surgery scheduled for 6 months from then.

Why the different treatment for the two patients?

The FIRST is a Golden Retriever.

The SECOND is a Senior Citizen.

Next time take me to a vet!

The poignant story of Sarah is one that's been told once too often in the US. #MedicareForAll #UniversalHealthcareNOW

Never threaten those in power. Soon, we'll see people get the death penalty for such behavior.

And crowds of patriots will applaud while the miscreants hang.

If Trump really cared about the US citizens, he'd reform health insurance completely.

But it's clear he doesn't.......

Too bad for us.

And even if he had the heart to do so, the powers running the country would never permit it.

Can you see it, they're playing the victim card.

The insurance company appears to have something to answer for when it comes to not being downright customer friendly and helpful - it just so appears that their MO is to provoke a response which is carefully calculated to add to the frustration of their customers after which they can claim that they are the victims.
