    You think you’re more qualified than a doctor to assess whether a kid is capable of making bodily decisions? You can only speak for yourself.

        You’re still nowhere near the expertise of doctors who go through nedical school for a decade or more and some even write papers for those peer reviewed journals. And some of their doctor peers review those papers before publishing journals.

        Nobody is going to listen to you or some insurance company bean counter about medical advice over a qualified medical professional. They certainly should make it illegal for insurance companies to deny care contradicting doctors.

          If there is anyone who knows anything it is the insurance companies. Thats their literal job to calculate the risks of something costly with heigh accuracy so they can put a price on it thus distributing a large single cost across many people as a small regular cost. If an insurance company doeant want to do somthing hiatory would tell us there is a damn good reason why.
