Nailed to a Blue Cross

Blue Cross Blue Shield Calls Miscarriage "Elective Abortion," Denies Claim.

And it's the BCBS of KC, no less. Grrr.

This is why I hope this initiative passes here. It would ding insurers 3x for every claim unreasonably denied.

That's a fantastic idea. I just wish it stood a snowball's chance of passing in a legislature where health care industry lobbyists hold sway....

Motherfuckers. There's no excuse for that at all. NONE.

Wow, just wow. I have enough experience with insurance, that I am not that surprised, but wow.

Late to the party here, but it sounds like a bad faith claim. No new laws needed, current law allows for treble attorney fees and massive punitives (usually millions). More government is not the answer, efficient government is. If you support Nationalized healthcare, imagine the IRS trying to work this out. If that doesn't make you reconsider your position, I'm not sure what will.
