At this point, we all have to acknowledge that insurance companies are acting as entities that harm patients in the name of profit by denying care and as physicians we all took an oath to first, do no harm. I don’t wanna get all kumbaya and woo-woo about this but when I took my oath (over zoom because of my covid graduation) upon graduating from medical school I, like, meant it? Like, taking that oath was meaningful and symbolic and when I made that oath I genuinely was committing myself to uphold the things I said for the rest of my life, it wasn’t just another thing to check off the list in my medical training journey. The moment I became a doctor was when I took that oath. And I think as a profession, we need to start ousting these doctors who are working in tandem with these insurance companies to act as barriers to care in the name of profits. Who are lending their medical licenses to be used in this way, who are harming the dwindling public trust people may have left in our profession by using their position in society to literally hurt people. Physicians who work for insurance companies should be embarrassed and ashamed and none of us should acknowledge them as colleagues. We need to actively and publicly shun them. The AMA should publicly support this and would if the people who run it weren’t a bunch of bootlicking cowards who kowtow to fascists and support union busting. #this this this#my doctor actually shames these people when she has to talk to them#literally she asks them how they can deny care if they took an oath to do no harm#and asks them things like “is this really what you thought you’d be doing when you dreamed of being a doctor? when you went to med school?”#“did you really become a doctor just so you can save an executive a few bucks while making someone suffer?”#it’s apparently quite effective at getting them to approve something they’ve denied#as is the fact that she asks for their name & liscense number to include in patient charts if they deny something#apparently they really don’t like the threat of losing their license or even just potentially being reported for their decisions#so yes i am in favor of a) bullying & shaming doctors who work for insurance companies#and b) yanking their medical licenses
