I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.







I just found out that @AnthemBCBS is denying my little sister's 2nd CAR T-cell therapy for her cancer, saying that they only do one per patient per lifetime. Yet, this is the only treatment option available to her given that she's had a bone marrow transplant and a different version of CAR T-cell therapy, but given the cost of the procedure, they would rather deny it and save themselves money versus giving her life-saving treatment. Something is severely broken in our healthcare system if we pay for it and the health insurance companies can make purely financial decisions for denying treatment, especially for cancer patients. Her doctors have appealed TWICE and been denied, is there anybody at @AnthemBCBS that can help get approval for her CAR-T treatment?
