United Healthcare CEO shot to death in front of NYC investor meeting

[MultiVerse]

Bullshit dude. You have.

That's a lie

[Buzzworthy]

Not in my thread but somewhere else. I definitely remember you mentioning it and my reaction was to think even less of you for doing so.

You just continue being right and you’ll be just fine.

[MultiVerse]

You are quite simply misremembering something that never happened. It does explain though why this is so personal for you, even though you're entirely without question 100% wrong

[Danno]

Lord knows MV has been a douchenozzle of the highest order lately, but I think he's correct on this point.

[MultiVerse]

Lot's of that going around. To be fair, skiing conditions right now are how North Korea gets information from prisoners

And when did we decide that douchenozzles were a bad thing anyway? We should retire that term in favor of "enemanozzle" or "colostomy bag".

Douche implies a cleansing

Yeah these days it might seem misogynistic.

But honestly. Do modern women douche anymore?
It’s old school. I hope they aren’t offended.
If so. Maybe they are douching.

Less about misogyny and more aboutaren't douchenozzles pretty much living the dream?

[Danno]

Less that and more aren't douchenozzles pretty much living the dream?

I'm not sure about that, think about the vaginas that actually need douching

[Trackhead]

They need flagyl, or diflucan, but not a douche.

[riser4]

So you're saying nobody needs a douche?

[Trackhead]

I like the tone of this thread now, it’s like old school TGR when it used to be fun here.

Yes, rhetorically, douches are highly effective and refreshing.

Nothing better than a Lysol clam shack

Why can’t there be more like this guy?

Good on the surface… but the Suns have the 7th highest average ticket price in the NBA at $285. Shaving a few bucks off the cost of a hot dog isn’t making a game remotely affordable for a family.

[fomofo]

Wow, $285 average? Does that factor in court side, suites, etc?

What’s a ticket go for in the nosebleeds?

[Core Shot]

So true. No sports ball is affordable.

But not gouging is a nice idea.

Same shit on ski hills.
My son and I ate a power bar and chugged free water rather than buy a $17 bratwurst.
We got better cheap food at a Mexican joint on the way home.

Not sure why this is in the healthcare thread

At least the ski hill told us how much we were getting ass raped. And we declined.

The only hill I feel like I get my moneys worth is the top of the bird.
Still expensive. But tasty.

So what? It's still good to have affordable options. A hot dog, chips, and a drink for $6 is great. There may be other separate reasons to criticize the guy but this isn't just "good on the surface", this move is simply "good".

you can get 2 tickets to todays Suns game for $19/ea + fees or NYE $24/ea + fees, on Stubhub right now. No idea if that’s typical or not, but that’s not a terribly expensive park outing.

Sure beats the way modern US healthcare works!
Me: "Hey, how much for a standard XYZ assuming no complications?"
Hospital: "We can't tell you that. You'll find out when you get the bill."

THAT'S what ticks me off!

Vox did a great piece on hospital birth costs a while back that was really illuminating. I ended up attempting the exact same exercise and after receiving such lousy treatment all the way around (And F U Bozeman Health fka Bozeman Deaconess! Those a-holes are the freaking WORST!), so we ended up going with a midwife who was able to give us an all-inclusive price up front. No fuss, no muss. She was amazing.

Google: no suprises act

Just another example of something that happened during the present admin, no reason to know about it.

We're all going to benefit from the many things Joe & Nancy & others have done over the past 4 years. Unfortunately they were terrible at marketing the accomplishments so morons rejected them in favor of the orange hype machine. The leopards, at least, will enjoy the feeding frenzy that's coming.

Fact.

Yep, I know of no other industry that can say that. Yes, I'm a HCW, but the amount of unknowns in billing patients is astoundin. Trying to decipher billing codes and what exactly needs to be worded in a patients chart for "insurance" company doctors to approve or deny. Why does insurance need to dictate how much is paid for a procedure based on what kind of insurance they have and what kind of reimbursement they are going to get or not get. We always like working with "correctional institutions" because we always know they (taxpayers) will pay.
