My recent life-threatening ordeal in dealing Healthnet health insurance
company (HMO) has left me with a serious concern for the wellbeing and the
life of those who being victimized by a very corrupt health care system in
this country.
My pregnancy had some complication but Heathnet almost killed both my baby
and myself with their thick bureaucracy and disrepect for the life of
patients. I myself have now learned the meaning of the say: "We are not
profits. We are patients". Healthnet delayed their approval and gave us a
painful runaround and lots of pain and agonies before we finally received
the proper treatment. Even then, they tried a few more stunts to
discourage
us from filing a formal complaint. It turned out that the insurance
companies have our judicial system wired: the system has been set up to
serve the interests of the insurance companies - not the patients, of whom
these insurance companies look upon as 'cash cows' - rather than
"patients".
In the US, it's not the polluted air and poisonous foods that kill you.
It's the networks of greedy and evil people in the health insurance
business that would soon or later do you in.
We are moving back to Columbia before we get killed by a very evil system
of healthcareless.
