I learned about rescission [the act of rescinding] in the CNN lead story yesterday. Insurance company's staff seek reasons to rescind approval after expensive treatment ends. The woman who spoke to Congress explained that problem after a double masectomy, radiation and chemo left her at her weakest. When most in need of insurance, they seek to withdraw coverage.

We're expensive but the places you mention have extraordinary taxes to pay for this "low"cost health care. It's paid for one way or the other. We need to improve the way ins. co.'s do buisness instead of handing our health to the gov't.
