Americans Turn Health Firm CEO's Killer into a Hero | Vantage with Palki Sharma

[@AeonMusicRecord]

if u call an ambulance in USA to go hospital in emergency life support condition first u need to think if i have $5000 to pay and then u need to think if insurance will pay. This is the kind of business they run

[@yojimbo3681]

Correct. People take Uber to the hospital instead.

[@SamSam-bv3vn]

I had full insurance and still the Ambulance charged me almost $2500 for a three miles distance. No amount of explanation or insurance information and coverage details helped. They extracted the money from me.

[@hydronpowers9014]

That ambulance will never show up in India in the first place. They will say take an auto or ride from a neighbor.

[@RajJogi-h9e]

I moved to the states recently and unfortunately started experiencing some health issues. Finding a doctors appointment is pain in the ass, it takes weeks even months. The doctor did nothing but asked me to take Ibuprofen. And I was charged 256 dollars for that even after having an insurance. Then she referred me to a specialist, and now I have got an appointment for 6th March 2025. Can you believe it? India's Healthcare is 100 times better than this.

[@hennagaijin7856]

Don't go to an American hospital unless it is an absolute life or death emergency. You knew that before you ever got here. Take a flight to San Diego, cross the border to Tijuana, and you will get great healthcare at a fraction of the cost. I have heard that you can also fly to Puerto Rico and have a similar experience.

Palki, please do your research on the real issue here. Their denial rate is close to 38%. Not 9%. Americans are united on this incident for a reason, and the reason is not because the alleged suspect looks a certain way.

she said 02:07 "you must never condone violence. Killing someone is never the answer to any problem" - Likewise when assholes do the killing of people in different ways., such as insurance, "healthcare" wars, taxes, bureaucracy, mandates, false propaganda etc " must not be condoned !!

[@user-ds7up1fi2y]

The denial rate would need to ne be considered alongside the rate at whch people submit false claims and claims that are not covered under their insurance policy. If United Healthcare gets a higher number of false insurance claims, the denial rate would not be an indication of dishonest business.

[@grracccee]

@@user-ds7up1fi2y but it was dishonest business, the company was already under investigation for denying valid claims with the use of skewed AI algorithm.

I was born in India and emigrated to the US in 1997. The health care system here is run like a mafia - its capitalism gone crazy. My wife had a complicated pregnancy & had to be hospitalized early. My twin kids were born 2 months early & had to be put in the NICU. The hospital charged *$1.2 million* (about Rs 10 crore) to the insurance company. The insurance company negotiated it down to $800K & refused to pay any more, so I had to bring my kids from the NICU to my house. I work for a world-class software firm that provides one of the best insurance coverage in the US & my out-of-pocket expenses were $3K. But I often wonder what happens to average Americans who don't have such stellar insurance as mine. And what would happen to jobless people? Its a nightmare.

Our government put him above the law, that is why people like Mangione, not because he's young or cute, but because he got rid of a threat to the safety of millions of US citizens. He didn't attack the messenger, the insurance agent that denied the claims, he attacked the man that set up the system of terror, which is what US Healthcare is.

She is offering both sides of the argument. You just need to be sensible enough to gauge that much.

[@pr5991]

She doesn’t know what to say while her home country has worse healthcare of the world and their politicians go to US to get treated, she won’t report that. Her name is Palki Sharma, Sharm means to have some shame but she is shameless and always a puppy of corporate. She was kicked out from WION for some reason. She will never utter a word against Indian government, their treatment to Indian farmers which killed around 1000 farmers so far.

You mentioned that the assassinated CEO has a wife and children. So what? How about the thousands of insured people who died as a result of denial of their health insurance and who left behind grieving spouses and children of their own? There are ongoing court cases of these health insurance companies because of their malpractice. If they are found guilty, aren't their denial of coverage of their clients resulting in their deaths tantamount to mass murder? Isn't this considered criminal? Since there is existing death penalty in the US, shouldn't they also be penalized with death? An ordinary person who commits a heinous crime, which this is, will surely be sentenced to death. But if these health insurance companies are found guilty, which they should be, shouldn't they also be similarly penalized? More likely they won't be. Why you ask? Because they belong to society's 1%. The so-called privileged class. Your mentioning the CEO's family makes you sound like a morally upright person, like some others who said the same thing you did. Compare side by side the family of the murdered CEO and those who died because of health coverage denial.

US spends on its military???? In 2023, the US spent nearly $61 billion on foreign aid, with the top ten recipients being: Ukraine ($16.4 billion) Israel ($3.3 billion) Ethiopia ($1.95 billion) Jordan ($1.65 billion) Egypt ($1.43 billion) Afghanistan ($1.19 billion) Somalia ($1.13 billion) Yemen ($1.05 billion) Congo ($987 million) Syria ($896 million)

[@hennagaijin7856]

OH, and we Americans will go around buying houses they can't afford, purchasing glamor vehicles that cost twice what a yearly wage brings in, waste loads of money on expensive vacations, and leverage ourselves to the hilt with debt. But we won't plan for medical emergencies. And when a medical emergency hits us hard, we cry about being a victim of the capitalist corporations. How pathetic! Have you seen how Americans look lately? We walk around looking like fat tubs of $#!T with a Diet Coke in our hands. And then we point the finger at the corporations when we have a heart attack or a stroke when, to begin with, we could have "cut the bill by 90%" by making healthier life choices. When we Americans are hauling @$$, we have to make two trips because we're so fat.

Agreed. Even if Medicare for all is still a longshot the least we could do, as a civilized society, is care about the elderly and the youth enough to make THEIR treatment "free" at point of service. The quotes were because it would be paid for by adjusting existing budgets and potentially raising taxes but I consider it a small price to pay.
