American health insurance chatbot does not know what a "primary care physician" is. ๐Ÿ™„ #BCBSM #BlueCross #BlueCrossBlueShield #Michigan #HealthCare #PublicHealth #Enshittification
Finally got the COVID booster today. Apparently our insurance has been refusing to pay for boosters for anyone under 18 so we paid $200 out of pocket for our 4 year old's booster. Here's a hearty boo of shame to Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, a real collection of villains who'd deny health care to a child.

got a call from Doctor about heart monitor prescribed me a week ago. They're waiting, still, on insurance approval, a week later! It's only my heart? wtf, more proof we need #healthcare4all, get insurance out of middle approving our health care decisions!
#DenyDelayDepose hits hard when you're the target.
#BlueCrossBlueShield is corrupt like United Health Care lest you doubt. Hope Luigi Mangione has great lawyers, wish we had great representatives, Senators & political parties.

#BlueCrossBlueShield #insurance in #Vermont might go under without help from the state. "If it fails, the stateโ€™s entire health care apparatus could fall apart, officials say."

Maybe we should rethink the health care apparatus instead of giving the parasite more blood, eh?

Financial struggles have pushed Vermontโ€™s largest health insurer to the brink

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont has lost over $150 million in the past four years. If it fails, the stateโ€™s entire health care apparatus could fall apart, officials say.

LOL. #BlueCrossBlueShield sent an opinion survey to me. I responded just how you'd expect. I hope they have the required lead-and-asbestos safety bunny-suit handy, they will need it. I didn't outright threaten them, but I did declare that they were the villain in our healthcare story. Part of the Great Adversary, and if they were on fire, and I had a glass of water, I'd drink it. No, no threats, but I wish them glorious suffering.
An interesting visualization of the largest health plans in each state. For context: Elevance, HCSC, and Highmark are all #BlueCrossBlueShield plans. #BCBS #HealthInsurance #MarketConcentration #monopolies #DataVisualization https://buff.ly/4gJfSl6

There's been a positive update in this story of the Florida mom, Briana Boston, who was arrested for mouthing off during a phone call with her health insurance provider. She was released sometime yesterday and charges appear to have been dropped.

Here's the story from when she was initially arrested.
