Boston (SmartAboutHealth) - A ruthless health insurance company denied
coverage to an ill newborn baby in Texas, resulting in the death of the
young boy.


this could never happen. the US has the best healthcare because the
rich are always covered. and texas is the most pro life state in the
union so they would never have allowed a baby to die....

oh..wait...this wasnt an abortion so they really don't give a ****.


The baby boy was born on March 15th with what BlueCross BlueShield of
Texas deemed a pre-existing condition.


THAT'S cool!! what a neat trick..call it a pre existing condition on a
new born...

but we have the best medical care, right?


Under the new health care initiative from President Barack Obama, health
insurance companies will no longer be able to deny coverage to infants
due to "pre-existing conditions."


the attitude of the right is that the baby deserved to die.

it wasnt rich

its parents were middle class so deserve nothing


And maybe it was an inoperatable condition on this baby. Babies do die
because of this. Is what JFK and Jackies baby that died shortly after
birth died of. And they had all the health care money could buy.



Yet these people's child was denied even the chance. This is the kind of
policy you support?
