'Out of control': Cancer surgeon claims UnitedHealthcare questioned her mid-procedure
a year ago by pelespirit to c/usa
A breast cancer surgeon had to "scrub out mid-surgery" to call a UnitedHealthcare representative because the insurance giant questioned whether the procedure she was in the middle of performing was really necessary.
Dr. Elisabeth Potter posted her story to Instagram this week, and the post has gotten more than 221,000 likes.
Still wearing her scrub cap, Dr. Potter began her video saying, "It’s 2025, and navigating insurance has somehow just gotten worse."

Calling it now:
UHC will deny the anesthesia claim because they wont understand why they needed so much time to perform the procedure.
