there are probably countries where the shipping cost of that stack of paper cost more then whatever they denied.
For context – I am female. Tubals and bisalps are covered under the ACA and UHC itself has bisalps specifically listed as a 100% covered procedure.
It’s almost as if there’s a conflict of interest when health insurance companies deny claims.
You can bludgeon a CEO to death with that stack. Not saying you should… but you could…
“Hey! It looks like you’re wanting to use a service you are paying us for. Unfortunately, you’re asking for too much, sorry. We’re happy to help cover something else…maybe. You’ll find out when we do!”
So they didn’t want to pay for your sterilization?
Your paying for the paper not Healthcare
Is that a return envelope with a “Place your own stamp here” fuck them
they covered you with more information that you can consume, and hid the loophole on page 193. they killed trees to tell you that they wont be paying for your operation that will result in less profit for them in the future. they are a health care company. not a prevention company. maybe we need to prevent this type of company.
Does every page say “Fuck you.”? Because that’s what it looks like to me.
Did you read it all? How do you know there’s not a random clause that if you show up in their office in a duck costume they must do as you’ve asked? It could be in there
You’re a woman aren’t you? It’s harder for us to get sterilization approval, especially since Roe
Talk about drowning in paperwork
Are you able to keep requesting so they waste money on this?
So they’re not just killing us, they’re killing trees as well. Great.
Just send it back with a memo on it “See my changes as talked about on the phone” without changing a thing.
Have them read the entire thing themselves.
Thank God capitalism is the pinnacle of efficiency
That stack of paper might just be enough to deflect a bullet… Just saying.
That’s half your bill in paper and mail
There are good people in the world, and then there’s United Healthcare.
This is how they defend

I had a vasectomy at 24, without having any children. The only clearance that was required was a brief conversation with the surgeon, in which I explained that this was a long-term desire & that my life partner doesn’t want children either. As a man, the lack of bodily autonomy women have in this country is jarring.
Someone needs to tell them sterilization is cheaper than child birth.
Is this for a $1-3k vasectomy?
Reddit’s r/childfree sub has a list of doctors by state that will do it, no questions asked. Maybe a good start to look at it?
OP, we need more details! Was this a vasectomy or a tubal?
I’m sorry you were denied. I had my bisalp done with United. Keep trying. Don’t give up

The company doth protest too much. Wtf.
