remember last week will cover the story of baby alex who was uh...
considered by his uh...
insurance company or the rocky mountain health plans wid when they were trying
to get insurance for maybe alex
consider them to fact and a flat-out told them that uh... the family that be
fun to be called the baby leo sorry sir
but uh... alistair too fat
leaking every
but he called his dad and i let him know that is that having to be a reporter
uh... and and news anchors so
taking a little bit of media attention behind it and then everybody was
outraged and saying
kamon what sip baby cryptic back
we can't put it on a treadmill right so and then finally said that uh... rocky
mountain health plan said okay okay no ma sqn
uh... will cover uh... this unacceptably fabric
an invite will change our policy was of course a flaw that we had overlooked
until there was
giant media attention
uh... that uh... we're not covering babies that are in the ninety-fifth
percentile in weight at a bar
again the kids can't do anything about it they were born that way or the kid
was drinking was breast milk
assault was p right
well now we had the exact opposite
uh... two-year-old insulin bates has been denied coverage
because she is tuesday
i'm not kidding
uh... united healthcare golden rule
the very bottom rana khalili both health insurance company
has said that uh...
has told the we are in in these quotes are unbelievable
quote we are unable to provide coverage for a slim because her height than we do
not meet our company standards
uh... i'm sorry that she did not meet your company standards as a two-year-old
and then they come on the bed of
there they say that uh... eighty-nine process for property that health care
both of the eighty nine percent of people who apply pressure it's
uh... and that uh...
insurers have their cop
proprietary height and weight guidelines that they can't share
so they deny kids if they don't meet certain height weight guidelines and i
said well we cover eighty nine percent of people
eleven percent well that's a sad day for you if you get kids there to senior to
fact
uh... well does but we the people that
might be dangerous milic exactly
and that's why we don't cover
now if you try to make a profit
and you don't want to give uh... insurance to people who actually might
need it
maybe that's the way you go
godbless couples right
and i got no probs with campbell's them when yourselves sneakers
but when you're selling health insurance and if you don't get health insurance to
people and they die
well
and we got a different issue limit
sewed up answers a mass in all the people out there
what did you have a baby or child in this case is to
that it's considered by these companies to not meet company standards
what do you do that
i think is the whole point of insurance
the cover you
it's not the whole point of insurance
ev if they're not gonna cover you when you need it
and these kids kids don't even need to get it just might need it because of
tuesday near too fat
uh... and by the way somebody's gotta be right somebody's head in the
ninety-fifth percentile
uh... uh... or the fifth percentile
so all those people or out a lot right
so don't have babies like that all right
watch out
they're not grown adults like to do some about their way
and if
if they're only so they sure so people that they think are perfectly healthy
and will stay perfectly healthy
then what's the point of having trips
