    So here is a question:

    A medical professional examined the person IN PERSON and has a requirement.

    In comes the insurance to tell you your doctor is wrong and that you’re perfectly fine, your doctor is basically lying to you.

    Question: how the fuck did any of this ever become legal?

      It became legal when we decided medicine was too important to be handled by a free market, and we created a labyrinth of laws governing how medicine must be administered.

        You literally take the wrong takeaway from all this.

        A free market for healthcare is a disaster. A few big companies will form that will squeeze every last cent out of dying people, you get the US system. US healthcare and it’s free market literally is the worst. Be healthy and bankrupt or die
