I thought government would help drive down the amount of denied claims in the health insurance industry.  Surprise!  They are the largest to deny claims.  I know it’s a shocker isn’t it?

Of the eight insurers listed, Medicare is most likely to reject a claim, sending away 6.85% of requests. This is more than any private insurer and double that of the private insurers’ average!

In short, the AMA is endorsing a plan whose closest existing example is the most frequent denier of claims. How the public option exemplifies “delivering care to patients” is unclear.
