This reminded me of an incident 40 years ago when I took my then 28 year old husband to a local ER for chest pain. Insurance refused to pay because he did not have a heart attack, but had pleuritis (inflammation of the lining of the lung). I guess you have to be a medical professional to know when your crisis counts as an emergency or not. (I was a practicing nurse at the time.)

It's disgusting.
