Please DONT Sign My Petition (I unwatched this thread and I don’t care about you)

[Travis Price]

As a verified socialist, I signed this, and all, petitions. Not because I support what was being said, but because of fellowship.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA

WOW!!!!! Perhaps, you have revealed your true identity. A SHIP Counselor.



YOU ARE NOT EVEN A LICENSED AGENT. WHY ARE YOU “weighing in” on this forum, SIR????

This tweet or in this case, thread, didn’t age well

Or maybe it did

Yep. I think Karen's done.

Provider/Carrier contract negotiations (a) stop the [greedy] provider's from getting too greedy (they need patients) and (b) stop the [greedy] insurance carriers from being too cheap in the name of profit (if their covered people can't go to good providers, they'll jump to new carriers).

Forcing the [greedy] providers to "take the deal" puts alot of power in a [greedy] carrier's corner.

But maybe I'm wrong.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You made my day.

The OP's beef is with the PROVIDER, not the carrier, and PROVIDERS may choose which networks they will join, and which they will not.

This is universal, not limited to specific geographic regions.

I'm not sure about that-the "real" beef.

Sometime back @Northeast Agent started a thread with a newspaper article about a hospital in PA that stopped accepting a Medicare Advantage plan. I can't remember what you said, but it seems to me like you made some comments about a necessary framework of negotiations between the two sides to solve the issue.

IF we take op's comments at face value:

I’m concerned about the CITIZENS NOT MYSELF.

I think, at the very core, from op's perspective, there is an interesting situational parallel between this thread and the other one I referenced.

It seems to me that there are two problems with the approach OP took to try to resolve her concerns.

She is attempting to impose her "ideal" solution on the situation as it exists, WITHOUT any attempt to understand what reasons, business or otherwise, the Hospital and the Insurance Carrier have for their current business positions.

To my eye, an insurance agent selling UHC products issuing a strident cry of "LET US IN" to a hospital presents such a glaring apparent conflict of interest that I think it is highly unlikely that the hospital could ever believe she has any real concerns other than profiting from the sale of insurance.

She may have taken actions that will actually hinder, rather than help, attainment of what she says her goal is.

There is so much value in this post. I could barely stop turning the pages as we followed the storylines, found the true antagonist, and analyzed the character development.

I really appreciate where LD found "echos" of prior threads in this one. A literary masterpiece.

This is sarcasm.

Something tells me that's a theme in her life.
