Mr Info Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I understand that Atena could have a good process in place for nurses and other staff to make approval decisions and then have the insurance medical director contact a nurse for clarification. But an insurance medical director to have never looked at a single patient's record to approve/deny care is stunning. I was interested in what this topic would be about since Aetna was the title. On a tangential topic, can health insurance corps like Aetna feel threatened by the non-profit health insurance being established by Amazon, JP Morgan Chase, and Berkshire Hathaway representing 1.1M workers? https://www.forbes.com/sites/johannabennett/2018/01/30/be-afraid-healthcare-feels-the-amazon-effect/#72f3ebbe2d31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Besides the big jump at some sort of judgment, I'm sure there is much much more more to this. But, fueled by CNN and a media quick to divert attention to true matters we will be flooded with this story errywurr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
