Sick of the lengthy process of battling insurance denials to get companies to pay for her medical care, Holden Karau decided to fight back like an engineer: She built an AI program to automate the process.
“… The “dirty secret” of the insurance industry is that most denials can be successfully appealed…”
Okay, i happen to actually have narcolepsy & be gender nc, and have a trans partner, i feel like i can speak with some authority on this.
Gender affirming surgery can be the opposite of health care
Every surgery can be, but gender affirming care is one of the least regretted surgeries in existence. By opening this way, you frame the argument as different for trans healthcare. Its not.
We’re also not children. Dont infantilize trans people. We have the same right to make choices others don’t understand, just like cis folks can.
And narcolepsy is a chronic inability to get delta wave sleep. Extra sleep is absolutely treatment. I can see what your getting at, but you’re choosing examples you don’t understand and misinforming people.
I think we agree about surgery, which is kinda the point. And because of that trans healthcare is not different than other health care, that’s also the point.
And I completely agree extra sleep can be used to treat narcolepsy, but it can also make things worse, which is why you need to look at all the options, balence etc.
Medicine is rarely a simple matter of one treatment for all issues.
