TLDR: The insurance company has a new policy, set to take effect in February 2025, where they decide how much anesthesia is needed for surgeries. They won’t pay for any anesthesia over that, with exemptions for maternity and pediatric cases and for Connecticut providers.
The article also notes the insurance company reported a $2.3 billion net income increase in June 2024.
Edit to update: Anthem now says they won’t put this policy into effect
It was already reversed.
We got them scared
They should be.
I propose a guillotine emoji.

Didn’t verify, but someone said it was only reversed in like one out of the five proposed states. Figures
usually when a thing is reversed due to outrage, the entity will simply wait a few months to quietly put said thing into effect again
