    “No employees — be they the people who answer customer calls or nurses who visit patients in their homes — should have to fear for their and their loved ones’ safety,” Witty wrote.

    There’s something we can all agree on. Executive fear though…

      They shouldn’t have to fear for their safety either, they should just do right by their customers and it wouldn’t be a problem.

      They should be exactly as uncertain of their survival as the people that they’re deciding claims on.

      No insurance customer should have to fear dying because their medically necessary procedures are denied. Of all the things wrong with Healthcare, prior authorization should be target number 1 for legislators. It should be 100% illegal for insurance companies to require pre-authorization.

      If a doctor regularly prescribes unnecessary treatments or medication, let the proper ayluthorities investigate and pull their credentials, if necessary. Don’t kill thousands of people to save a buck and say it’s to protect them from unnecessary procedures.
