Depose may be making people submit more paperwork to prove they need the requested care.
My permanently paraplegic wife has to resubmit paperwork every so many years to prove she's still paraplegic.
The insurance company hopes you submit the paperwork late or make a mistake so they can deny some benefits until you re-apply again, from scratch, and that application is approved.
The healthcare system is experiencing a slow motion collapse or restructuring. In my area, Healthcare practices are having difficulty finding and leeping primary care physicians. One of mine left after a year because they were working him like a dog and he spent most of his time on paperwork, not patient care.
Another doctor of mine has started a concierge practice because the insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid re-imbursement rates are too low.
Also, two former Stewart Healthcare hospitals have closed in Massachusetts.
One solution is private philanthropy. Ken Langone has endowed NYU Medical School so tuition is free for medical students. More of that needs to be done.
America has a National Endowment for the Arts. America could benefit from having non-Government national endowments for Health, Education, and Skills training.
Government does not have a monopoly on solutions. Dems prefer Government solutions because those take power away from private citizens and gives it to the unaccountable, unelected Administrative State.
