CHICAGO – In an unprecedented move, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield plans representing Connecticut, New York and Missouri have unilaterally declared it will no longer pay for anesthesia care if the surgery or procedure goes beyond an arbitrary time limit, regardless of how long the surgical procedure takes. The American Society of Anesthesiologists calls on Anthem to reverse this proposal immediately.
The law should get a provision that if an insurer does not have his shit in order, another insurer can provide the service and Bill the failed insurer at 150pct.
That sounds fun but how about making a law with what basic insurance should cover at a minimum instead?
Absolutely… this is extra.
I’ll go out on a limb here, the NHS isn’t perfect, but it seems a damn sight better than what you guys have.
