You know, at face value he's absolutely right. We shouldn't claim care that is unnecessary or maybe even harmful. But where we disagree is that I think that decision should be left to our medical professionals
Insurance claims are approved or denied by medical professionals. In the state of NY it's even required for a specialist to approve or deny specialist care.
Some doctors are just absolute scum.
Even if this were the case (it is not in any real sense, see your other replies), the fact that it is done by a for profit entity that will lose money by approving a claim all but ensures the process will not be neutral or correct.
