Insuring Your Demise

(CBS/AP) Citing an effort to hold down costs, health insurance giant Blue Cross wants doctors in California to report conditions it could use to cancel new patients' medical coverage, it was reported Tuesday.

The state's largest for-profit health insurer is sending physicians copies of health insurance applications filled out by new patients, along with a letter advising them that the company has a right to drop members who fail to disclose "material medical history," the Los Angeles Times reported on its Web site.

"Any condition not listed on the application that is discovered to be pre-existing should be reported to Blue Cross immediately," according to the letter obtained by the newspaper.

One of the conditions noted in the letter that could force a new patient to be dropped by Blue Cross - pre-existing pregnancies.
It is my sincerest wish is that anyone who opposes single-payer non-profit health insurance get fucked and financially ruined by the likes of Blue Cross. This would include Douglas V. Gibbs, because in their opposition, they are morally approving the insurance companies to ruin fellow Americans.

Look.. health insurance is not a system designed to benefit Americans. It is a profit center. They exist to make money, and the effort to "hold down costs" is actually an effort to maximize profit. They just state it as if it somehow costs society less. It's an out-right lie.

The health insurance companies in the United States needs to be destroyed.. ruined.. put out of business and all their employees fired. Again, they exist to make money, and helping you get the best medical care is not on their agenda.

I hope Doug and the Right Wing Loon Brigade are financially ruined by an onset of unmanageable medical bills that they thought would be paid for by their insurance..

And Doug has said he thinks single-payer is a bad idea because the employees of the insurance companies would be fired. Boo fucking Hoo you stupid fuck. This is people's lives.. quite literally.. that is at stake here. I find you and your ilk morally wretched for putting business profits before the life and death of human beings.

Assholes

/update

What if you have a pre-existing condition and Blue Cross drops you? What the fuck are you supposed to do? You haven't got thousands and thousands of dollars to pay for it yourself. You have a job and make more than minimum wage, so you can't qualify for Medi-Caid.

Are you just supposed to die because they need to keep "costs down"?

Seriously.. these insurance companies need to be burned to the ground... metaphorically speaking of course.. but Doug would rather you just die.
