Insurance Companies: The Real Victims of Health Care Reform.
 |
| "Lets not forget the true victims here!" |
Health care reform may help a lot of people who previously may not have been able to receive health care. But what effect will an overhaul of health care in the US have on the medical companies?
Africanlegend stumbled across Mr. Ken Cerous, a CEO of a major medical insurance company, last night binge drinking at a local bar.
AL: So you don't think this will help anyone?
Ken Cerous: Well I mean maybe a few kids that are already sick, but it's not our fault they have bad genes. They should blame their parents and Charles Darwin. Truth is, we the insurance companies are the victims here! [slams down a shot of tequila and sips on his strawberry dacory]
AL: Really?
Ken Cerous: Yes we had a great system. People pay and when they finally get sick, we find some obscure reason not to pay. It was a lot of fun.. At first we just made up reasons during our lunch break while playing drinking games but then we found out apple has a “deny insurance claim app”
AL: Wow! There really is an app for everything.
Ken Cerous: Man I could tell you stories. This one time, this woman had an operation on her liver and we denied it. Since it was an “experimental operation” we required it to be done by a certified extraterrestrial, of course the cost of the alien abduction wouldn't be covered.....isn't that AWESOME!!
AL: Well no, not really. You are are supposed to pay that's what insurance is for isn't it?
Ken Cerous: HAHAHA....that's a good one! [pauses briefly as he realizes AL may be serious]. Really? Who told you that? You are lying..
AL: No I'm not...
Ken Cerous: Ok let's Google it then [takes out his i-phone and Googles it]. See it says right here! “Insurance company pays at its own discretion based on how hot the patient is.”
Al: Wait let me see that [checks phone]. YOU WROTE THAT!
Ken Cerous: Yeah, but it's on Google so it HAS to be right! Google is always right, i'll prove it [shows him the supposed evidence].
Evidence:
AL: Granted that is VERY compelling evidence, but..you can't run your business based on Wikipedia entries! Don't you know any idiot teenager can edit it.
Ken Cerous: My son is not an idiot! He just had too much to drink that night.
AL: What?
Ken Cerous: Anyway, I've got to go....long day tomorrow. Working in Congress aint a joke.
