A breast cancer surgeon had to “scrub out mid-surgery” to call a UnitedHealthcare representative because the insurance giant questioned whether the procedure she was in the middle of performing was really necessary.
Dr. Elisabeth Potter posted her story to Instagram this week, and the post has gotten more than 221,000 likes.
Still wearing her scrub cap, Dr. Potter began her video saying, “It’s 2025, and navigating insurance has somehow just gotten worse.”
Universal healthcare would have the same effect. The government would spend a lot more money on preventative care.
Preventative care is DIRT CHEAP compared to any treatment or management of any condition.
That… Doesn’t sound like a bad thing.
It’s not, I’m advocating for universal healthcare.
