    Insurance company denials of benefits in Pennsylvania and New York

    I just read this article from McClatchy on "How Insurers secretly blacklist millions with common ailments."  When you read this article, you'll realize why we need universal health care in the United States of America.

    Trying to buy health insurance on your own and have gallstones? You'll automatically be denied coverage. Rheumatoid arthritis? Automatic denial. Severe acne? Probably denied. Do you take metformin, a popular drug for diabetes? Denied. Use the anti-clotting drug Plavix or Seroquel, prescribed for anti-psychotic or sleep problems? Forget about it.   What's more, you can discover that if you lie to an insurer about your medical history and drug use, you will be rejected because data-mining companies sell information to insurers about your health, including detailed usage of prescription drugs.
