Thread regarding Elevance Health (Anthem) layoffs

Connect The Dots

It's "deeply personal" 🤔

A sprained ankle shouldn't require anything but propping your ankle.

Get to the cost increase.

@bn FYI - no xray at your PCP - no ultrasound either. Urgent care - x-ray yup, no ultrasound or CT/MRI so off to the ER you are sent - If you end up with a broken bone, you will have prescribed follow up with Ortho - not your PCP -

This place has incentives for many accounts to not use an ER - and penalties for EH if they do. Lots of communities do not have urgent care and not 24/7.

Tell me again why we don't have universal health care and put these greedy ba----ds out of business

A badly sprained ankle can feel broken. You won't know it's not broken until you get it examined. They want us to hobble around on a possibly broken ankle to go to a PCP or urgent care first just to save the company money.

@a3 I totally disagree with your last sentence. It should instead have said “…everyone has a responsibility to get the BEST care possible.”

You are important to your families and have a responsibility to them to get the “best” care, not the “cheapest” care.

Your responsibility to your family far outweighs any responsibility to the company you work for.

@OP yeah, none of this poorly acted show will soften the blow in any possible way. These people are delusional to think that it will. No solid numbers here...but everyone has a responsibility to get the cheapest care possible.

This guy is such a tool. Basically see the people we want you to see so company can be more profitable. They will never trickle down the savings to us.
