They aren’t the type to deny coverage of a patient, because if it’s related to an accident or injury that happened on the job, they’re the ones who are going to look into it. And probably increase the employers fees, and probably sue them for not providing adequate training or safety gear and signing a contract with them.
It’s not the same as healthcare. It’s more liability insurance. I’d bet this isn’t over being denied coverage, but something else entirely.
Not sure how I feel about this. The CEO doesn’t make the kind of compensation other CEOs of problem companies make. He does make a lot more than a lot of doctors that aren’t top tier brain surgeons. So I’m sort of on the side of “well, maybe people who don’t actually have a real job shouldn’t get paid more than doctors.”
Sounds like a pretty small insurance company, servicing only 1 state. Anybody know anything about them?
Workers comp insurance, not for profit.

Yeah, this doesn’t seem as clean cut as the Mangione case… not sure what to think about it yet; I’d be curious to find out what the guys motives were.
