Why Do Health Insurance Companies Take Your Money That You Give In Good Faith?
…and then do everything they can to deny your claims? If it were reasonable challenges that they made, that would be one thing, but the absurd levels they go to deny consumers their benefits seem to border on criminally negligent, imo. Is this why so many Americans have had it–up to here–with depending on the insurance companies for quality health care, when it is clear that all they are concerned with is making every penny possible,
no matter how much or how long they’ve been paid by their custumers?

Heath insurance is a business first – thier buiness only prospers when they make lots of money. Insurance companies only make money by taking in more money they dole out, which makes it good business for them to deny claims.

Because Congress has enabled them to do so–through lobbing of the very ones who pass the legislation. You lay down with dogs you will get fleas=and we have some really flea laden politicians.

Lets all get our facts straight first. If you recieve a plan of health insurance from your emplyer where they contribute, than your employer is the one to blame. They are the ones that set up the plan that they offer to there employees. Also when you sign up with the insurance company they give you a copy of your policy, lets try something new READ IT! In the huge book is how to use there plan. In the future if you want to go to the doctor or have several medical procedures to get done call your insurance co. and ask them what is the best hassle free way to get all of this done. they will even fax you or email you over a copy of instructions, so you are not taking a day off of work to fight with them over the phone.
