Even for folks who can pay for medical care... UnitedHealthcare is notorious for denying claims from their policyholders. An example that was posted on Reddit recently from a physician: "UHC denied my patient's prescription for a Lovenox bridge so her Coumadin could be held prior to surgery. The reason? I prescribed it twice daily instead of once daily, which is the standard of care for a Lovenox bridge. I was so pissed off I just paid for the medication out of pocket myself and gave it to my patient. It was $12. Twelve. Fucking. Dollars. They were totally okay with the possibility of her suffering a stroke or major thromboembolic event to save TWELVE DOLLARS." Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1h6h0wp/comment/m0ew8... |
