Obesity causes over 200 associated medical conditions and if we focus on only the 16 cancers it causes, imagine the denials of both bariatric surgery and GLP-1ra medications that reduce cancer risk. I have seen too many young people die because insurance would not cover surgery. Only doctors get sued and hospitals secondarily. Insurance is immune. @mcuban

If insurance companies can deny care and call it "medically unnecessary", why aren't they required to have malpractice insurance doe when they get it wrong and someone gets sicker or tragically dies ?

@wxblakeharms @WOODTV We are now heading toward the airport. About 45 minutes behind scheduled time, it's definitely a rough approach atm, but we are safe, and that's all that matters.
