For-profit medical insurance is a scam. Their priority is to issue denials, not provide care.
Exhibit A: Job description for "Denial Management Nurse" at University of Washington Health Care (falls under the "Revenue Cycle" department)
Exhibit B: "A recent study of Affordable Care Act medical insurance plans found that even when patients received care from in-network physicians the insurers nonetheless denied, on average, 17% of claims. One insurer denied 49% of claims in 2021; another’s turndowns hit an astonishing 80% in 2020."
