Dr. Linda Peeno has a confession
She worked for the health insurance company Humana, and her job was to use her medical expertise to find ways to deny patients care
In exchange for doing this, her salary rapidly increased into the 6 figures
In 1996, she confessed that 9 years earlier, she rejected a lifesaving operation. The patient died
She saved Humans $500,000 and got promoted
Denials are not an accident, they’re a business model for US health insurance companies
ALWAYS appeal
