THIS IS PAR FOR THE COURSE. I WORK IN THE MEDICAL FIELD BUT I ALSO HAVE A DISABLED SON, AS OF 11/2 YRS AGO. HE HAS PARALYSIS ON HIS LT SIDE FROM AN ACCIDENT. YOU KNOW HE WOULD BE A WHOLE LOT FARTHER IN HIS RECOVERY PROCESS IF IT WEREN'T FOR OUR WONDERFUL INSURANCE COMPANIES THAT WE PAY DEARLY FOR. HIS PRIMARY INSURANCE IS UHC, HIS SECONDARY IS TNCARE. IT HAS BEEN A CONTINUOUS BATTLE. HE HAD ACTUALLY GOTTEN TO THE POINT OF WALKING WITHOUT HIS CANE WHEN UHC SAID "OH NO, HE'S DOING TO WELL, HE DOESN'T NEED ANYMORE THERAPY". SO THEY SENT HIM HOME TO "DRAW UP", LITERALLY. NOW HE HAS HAD TO HAVE A BACLOFEN PUMP PUT IN AND WE JUST PRAY THAT THIS WORKS. OH YES, THANK GOD FOR THESE INSURANCE CO'S WE HAVE. AND, NOW, THEY WANT TO TAKE AWAY MORE? YOU KNOW, BRAIN INJURY PATIENTS SEEM TO BE MISUNDERSTOOD. IS THE POINT HERE JUST TO SEND PATIENTS HOME TO DRAW UP AND DIE? I JUST HOPE THAT ONE OF OUR "PEOPLE IN HIGHER SEATS" HAVE TO GO THRU THIS ONE DAY. LET ONE OF THEIR LOVED ONES BE SUFFERING AND THEY HAVE TO DEPEND ON OUR GOVERNMENT TO MAKE THE DECISIONS ON WHETHER THEY GET BETTER OR JUST WITHER AWAY,
Proposed TennCare trims 'devastating'
