Insurers say prior authorization helps control costs by preventing medically unnecessary care, but patients say the process can delay or deny access to needed treatments.

We need nationalized healthcare. Now. There are 32 developed nations on earth. 31 of them have nationalized healthcare options. We are the only country that does not.
Why are conservatives (and neo-liberals) so opposed to modern healthcare?
"I know my job makes the world a worse place and my boss treats me like trash, I wish I could just quit and pursue my own dreams, but I need health insurance!"
There are, unfortunately, many people who only get enjoyment out of other people's jealousy. They are proud that they have "good" insurance that covers everything, in the same way they are proud of their expensive house/car/boat/etc. If everyone has that thing, they aren't special and it isn't a cool toy because anyone could
I think it's because it'd end a lot of jobs and moneymaking opportunities. Imagine all those huge insurance companies just... not being needed the day nationalized healthcare happens. What about all those administrators who fill out the paper work in doctor's offices?
OTOH, it might also be what's needed to cool down the job market in the US.
Lot of typewriter repair jobs got ended by the advent of computers but we didn't let that stop us, we shouldn't protect obvious economic inefficiencies like this just to reward already affluent people
You're bullshit opinion is why I can't find a decent, locally made, buggy whip.
I'm just saying that one thing most politicians do not want to be seen to do is get rid of any jobs. This is why it's hard to get traction with it - it'll hurt them politically directly(people think nationalized health care is worse or bad), it'll hurt their campaigns (cause contributions), and it'll hurt them on "the economy" because they "killed lots of good jobs".
