Summary
Reddit’s r/medicine moderators deleted a thread where doctors and users harshly criticized murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Comments, including satirical rejections of insurance claims for gunshot wounds, targeted UHC’s reputation for denying care to boost profits.
Despite the removal, similar discussions continue, with medical professionals condemning UHC’s business practices under Thompson’s leadership, which a Senate report recently criticized for denying post-acute care.
Thompson, shot in what appears to be a targeted attack, led a company notorious for its high claim denial rates, fueling ongoing debates about corporate ethics in healthcare.
Apparently it already has gotten another insurance company that had just announced a ghoulish coverage policy for anesthesia to reverse course.
Because they realise that they dont really have any power and people might be starting to see that again. The bubble might finally be bursting.
God I’ve been edged so hard for so long it’s about fucking time
