    They approve more than they deny by far. The worst example would is probably UHC and even they only denied between 18-32% depending on who you ask.

    And, very few people apparently know this, but you can and should appeal those coverage denials.

    By the numbers, health insurance allows more people to get coverage than without, and therefor are a net positive.

    I’m an advocate for singlepayer, I don’t think health insurance companies should exist, but if we don’t convince citizens to vote differently then we’re not going to accomplish any good at all by killing some expendable erectile dysfunctional suits.

      Only

      health insurance allows more people to get coverage than without

      Yet there are more than two choices. It’s not useful to claim the current system is a net positive because the only worse option is no coverage

      you can and should appeal those coverage denials

      Every medical provider I’ve dealt with has people to handle this. They have to spend money hire extra people to redo paperwork, resubmit claims, until it comes through. Is this a good use of anyone’s time or money?

        There are only two choices, insured or uninsured. The third choice is locked behind voting blue and demonstrably the USA would rather die.
