CIGNA Faces 'Legal Nightmare' Over Death by Denial

I've had the pleasure of spending a day with the Sarkisyans a few months after their beautiful daughter Nataline's death. They are remarkable people who fight on after such a horrible tragedy. I hope Mark Geragos is successful in this case. As Hilda might say, "may Nataline's wings be on his shoulders" as he presses forward with this. My best to the Sarkisyans and Mr. Geragos.

Several years something similar happened to me. I was 29 years old and was told by my doctor I needed a liver transplant. My insurance at the time denied it saying it was 'experimental'. That was the worse nightmare I have ever been through. Three years later bye the grace of God, I was able to get on an insurance that would approve a transplant even though I had a pre existing condition. For some reason God did not want me yet. I got my transplant. That was 22 years ago.

This happens every single day in every single city and state....and people who do not get,why insurance companies should completely die off from out system,are complete retards, what a shitty system in a country that pretends to be one nation under God. Sickening...this Girl would lived & would have gotten her transplant in any country in europe,not only right away,but also for free.
Anyone who is against universal healthcare,will regret it when they face a deadly illness or disease,bastards

free heath care rules!

Unfortunately there will be no criminal charges and no one will be held accountable. Everyone involved in the denial of care in this case should face murder charges and be punished accordingly. Insurance companies are the problem and should not be a part of any health care solution. If they go out of business so what? We will be better off without a for profit health care system!

America needs to get a grip, stop obsessing about it and do something, healthcare cannot be trusted in the hands of those who desire profit more than anything. government is there to help us, not restrict, America seems to be afraid of its government, whereas in France or UK the government is afraid of its people like it should be

I knew two people that have died of leukemia in the last six months. Are insurance companies funding any of the research to help treat (or cure) the disease? Not at all. In a universal system, our savings over the current system could go towards research and PREVENT terminal illness. I have cigna insurance and it disgusts me.

What about the doctor? They just sit around waiting for approval for money while their patient dies? How about do the operation and deal with insurance later? I blame both the doctor and insurance company. What a sad day. Healthcare for profit will NEVER work!
