It’s the “profits over people” business model. They have to keep the shareholders happy. The only way to do that is to deny/withhold care. That’s why we need a single-payer system like the rest of civilization. Sincerely, Patty RN, BSN

Of course they did! In Wisconsin they refused to do a CT or MRI when I reported with months of severe R hip pain - thinking I’m drug seeking - instead they sent me for PT & dry needling - with no diagnosis - making it extremely worse where I needed a walker. I moved to CA - got different insurance and found I had bulging disc, severe stenosis, pinched nerve & my spinal cord was completely blocked! I knew I needed neck surgery which I’m recovering from now. AND in 4 weeks will be having lumbar surgery. 😖
