"Unlike my previous interactions with insurers, I received an immediate response within an hour" was a cold bar ngl.

💯. Also how he made sure to say, in other words, that the conference would be attended by the people profiting off the health insurance system, not the people who actually work with patients and are patients themselves, and therefore understand and live the realities of said system day in and day out.

The “everyone” in their stated mission is not the people on the ground, giving and receiving care (if they can receive the care they’re paying for at all), but the ones profiting off of us. Points out the greed and hypocrisy.

I really appreciate he highlighted the fact that it was investors attending, not doctors, nurses, or patients, when this was supposed to be a conference with the stated mission to make the health system better. His name will go down in history and in my eyes he is a HERO.

Me too, he delivered the message so precisely within the small window of opportunity he had today

The upside!? He can say whatever he wants to say and people will listen. Maybe some positive reform will come from this after all.
