The role of the Insurance Company is to enroll people,collect the premiums,pay for medical durable equipment,and pay for those who are going to recuperate and go on their way.
Unfortunately there are those who pay the premiums and are turned away, even though the need for medical care is greatly needed. As stated in one insurance companies' book of rules it states the following:Not covered
Any long-term treatment for chronic conditions or illnesses. Mental health rehabilitation,mental illness,emotional disorders,substance abuse treatment services,maintenance therapies or programs,counseling,education,and other codependency services,pt,chiropractic care,occupational speech,cognitive,long-term and cardiac rehabilitative.
Here are what some people have to say from another petition I had on care2.com
"It's a disgrace for insurance companies to refuse care for chronically care patients. Insurance companies should not legally be allowed to select and choose patients according to their health conditions and allowed to refuse benefits to those patients when they need the help most"
"Have you come to the point in your life where the suffering has taken over and you just want relief but it isn't coming fast enough because your insurance company keeps turning you away" This needs to be given attention
Please help and thank-you for reading

Pleas Help the Chronic ILL get Insurance Coverage

Dear Representative,

We have put in to many claims and have been turned away too many times. We have paid too much in premiums and not gotten what we need in benefits. We&#39;ve cried in pain, discouragement and anger, with no where to turn for help. It&#39;s been too long the insurance companies have been managed care and not people care. We need to have coverage to sustain our needs so we can have quality of life and stop our suffering.<br />Please help us.<br />Thank-you for reading
