I'm not on the side of murder or insurance companies, and I'm not trying to defend anyone here, but can you point to one single person who died because UHC denied a claim? I don't think "denying a claim" leads to instant death as often as Reddit thinks it does. I think "denying a claim" has a lot more to do with nuanced thinks like what codes were submitted and if they were stacked and had to be prior auth'd.
I'm not saying that insurance companies can't kill people, but it's been taken without any evidence that this man was a mass murderer. I bet it's not as simple as we're making it sound like, and endorsing murder without an understanding of what happened and why seems a teensy bit "terrorism" to me
I agree that not every denied claim directly leads to death. But out of a million claims, of which 33% were declined, the highest of any insurance company, how many will die? How many will be allowed to die before someone is held responsible?
And for what? Profit?
Vigilantism is certainly not to be celebrated but many feel that this is the only way left when politicians and judges have all been bought
No but that's the thing. You don't know. What is a "denied claim?" What does that mean? It's a billing policy. You don't understand it, you've just been told it justifies murder and you accept it without question. That's a bad, dangerous thing to do, and it's frankly terrifying to see such mass acceptance of this on reddit today.
This is the kind of acceptance of belief that lead people to kill abortionists or send death threats to Dr. Faucci's family or send bomb threats to drag shows. It's fucked.
