Anyone who works in claims denial should have their name, picture and list of fatalities published annually!

50% of them were AI 'reviewed' so you'd have at least half the list full of bot names :[

Easy. Whoever implemented the bot shares those kills in their entirety.

Right? Do you think any of the soulless ghouls who want to decide people's fate ALSO have the ability to implement AI to do this? Someome sold their soul to do this for pennies to make the investors billions. And they should understand their role in it.

It is algorithms now for the largest health insurance companies. Automatic denials based on what they calculate will save them the most money and then make someone jump through a bunch of hoops if they want to (maybe) get approved by a human after the first few rounds of a program denying again.

This happened to a family member and they still live with an untreated chronic illness because they can’t afford the treatment they should be covered for, but the insurance doesn’t want to pay because it is pricey and rare (I wonder what the insurance was bought for… hmmm).

Even if they eventually are forced to pay out, by denying treatmentt they're doing a lot of harm to patients because of the stress of the whole situation. This is never quantified but I guarantee its lowering life expectancies.

It will reduce the 'life-expectancy' of low-quality human CEO's.

I get the sentiment on this one.. but i’d imagine that a lot people actually having to pick up the phones or do the dirty wor are also just trying to sell enough of their time to get by down here just like us. Cant imagine anyone other than those on the top feel dissimilar than any of us.

I'm sure they get their names and pictures posted somewhere at United Healthcare..

It's called "Employee of the Month" and they also get a $5 Starbucks gift card.

Considering they used ChatGPT to do the denial claims. Maybe they should ChaptGPT for this too.

True, but there are more bullets than CEOs' sons
