What an interesting read, thank you for sharing.

All I could read from United Healthcare employees was: it's too expensive to treat this person, just let him die in agony. Unbelievable the power these companies have over the lives of suffering people.

I can't help also to think about the pharmaceutical companies, the cost of the treatments seems very inflated for the sake of profit.

Goddammit I need to go look at some pictures of kittens, this is depressing.

An amazing series everyone should read. Propublica might be the best journalistic outfit in the US right now
