(55M) Had a heart attack, died, revived and my cardiologist wouldn’t let me leave the hospital without a LifeVest (portable defibulator). It automatically triggers in case of another cardiac incident.<\/p>\n
I spent two extra days in the hospital because insurance didn’t want to approve the LifeVest. That cost the insurance another $20,000ish. They finally relented and let me have a LifeVest. Now, they say they don’t have to pay for the LifeVest.<\/p>\n
Everyone, the American insurance system (read scam) in a single sentence!!!<\/p>\n
“Your plan doesn’t provide coverage for services that are considered investigational or not medically necessary. The fact that a provider may prescribe, order, recommend or approve a service, treatment, medication, or supply does not make it Medically Necessary or a Covered Service, and does not guarantee payment.\u00a0These terms are defined in the ‘Definition’ section of your health plan document.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you can’t read the above, it says: American Insurance (55M) Had a heart attack, died, revived and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":42698,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[401,402,102,2960,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-42697","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-healthcare","8":"tag-bestofinternet-reddit","9":"tag-evergreen","10":"tag-health","11":"tag-healthcare","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom","14":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42697","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42697"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42697\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/42698"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42697"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42697"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42697"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
