Sorry for the vague post y’all, I’ve been fighting with #UHC #insurance so I can get the prior auth for my nerve block.

I reminded the office they needed to mark the request urgent a week and a half ago..

And again on Friday…

And again today…

I’ve been telling myself for two weeks “just get to Wednesday, it’ll get better” and if nothing magically comes through after hours I have to give up the appointment

For a good time, follow the relentlessly decent @tod

I suspect there are 12 of him, or he is a Ryan Reynolds clone.

Plato warned us $2,500 years ago. We still haven't learned. "The price of apathy in public affairs is to be ruled by evil men." #americanPolitics #AmericanHealthCare #philosophy

More like:
Billionaire invests $100M to control the direction of medical research and development to own (profit from) any patents and discoveries made, instead of letting it be free-for-all to benefit from.

That's the American Health Economy ― 100% capitalist, 100% anti-humanist.

Decades of Denial: How GOP Profit Politics Broke American Healthcare

Republicans didn’t fail healthcare—they designed it this way. From Nixon to today, profit has always come before patients.

WHAT A F*CKING SCAM‼️ #AmericanHealthCare

I'm glad #DickCheney is dead. My father died in 2009 from lung cancer, thanks to this country's health care, and at the time, the war criminal named Dick Cheney was still alive, being given a pass from Obama, and getting health care thanks to our tax money. #AmericanHealthCare #americanPolitics
