You’re pretty screwed when your insurance company refers you back to the manufacturer for repair.
“Hello; God? It’s me Margaret. I’d like to request an RMA for this kidney”
Need to buy that extended warranty...
“Sorry manufacturer defects aren’t covered under insurance.”
Or we can do away with the whole health insurance system because the premise of insurance is built on "just in case," but everyone inevitably has something go wrong with their body. So if a health insurance company is going to make money, they need to fleece everybody and not pay out as often as possible.
Warranties come from manufacturers. So is your heart warranty backed by your parent's savings account? I suppose that's accurate for some people.
