Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I don't even understand why there is a burden on the part of the insured to have to make a written request for this.
If you have a claim that is denied, the insurer should be required to provide the full details and reasons for the denial automatically at the time of the denial.
They shouldn't even be able to deny you as easily as they can. They can basically do it for no damned reason.
They shouldn't exist
Agreed. But at the moment, they exist, so we have to work with the hand we're dealt, while also trying to build a better system.
How about we make them not exist? No concessions with those who profit off of the sick as we distantle and restructure the healthcare system.
That's a process. It doesn't happen overnight.
Unless you have ideas for immediately deleting them within the next 24 hours without repercussions.
That's why I said no concessions.
So what are your solutions? Because if you get rid of what we have with the delete button, lots more people then have no method of getting help.
Next to climate change, this seems our most intractable American problem.
My guess is the company wants a lawyer present because they assume that anyone who is requesting this is probably going to bring one as well.
Basically they don't hire people they would authorize to tell you the reason.
