Board Certified Surgeon in Austin, Texas is whistleblower on US Health Insurance Companies

She was just PULLED OUT OF SURGERY
while her patient was asleep and forced to speak with UnitedHealthcare who tries to cancel patients inpatient stay after surgery who has CANCER

“It's 2025 and insurance just keeps getting worse”

“I've never had this happen before. But during the second deep, I had a phone call into the operating room saying that UnitedHealthcare wanted me to call them about one of the patients who was having surgery”

“So I scrubbed outta my case and I called UnitedHealthcare and the gentleman said he needed some information about her, wanna know her diagnosis and whether whether her inpatient stay should be justified. — I was like, do you understand that she's asleep right now and she has breast cancer?”

“It's out of control. It insurance is out of control. I have no other words.”

Jimmy Carter was the last president to actively open the government for engagement by citizen groups. Right after his November 1976 election, he agreed to address a huge hotel ballroom in D.C. full of local and national citizen advocates. It was a great success never again repeated by succeeding president-elects. Mr. Carter then chose civic leaders and other solid progressives to head regulatory agencies such as NHTSA, EPA, OSHA, FTC, and for other high positions in government. Starting in 1981, Ronald Reagan undermined many Carter Administration health and safety initiatives.

Mr. Carter was also the last president to authentically recognize Palestinian rights and charge the Israeli government with imposing a system of Apartheid (“worse than in South Africa,” he said) over Palestine. However, he failed to get Israel to agree to a comprehensive peace settlement, including the creation of a Palestinian state, and had to settle for a peace treaty between Egypt and Israel.

Citizen Carter was easily our greatest former president. For over 40 years his indefatigable work ethic was applied to advancing peace efforts, initiating health programs in developing countries, supervising fair elections overseas and, with Rosalynn, joining Habitat for Humanity as a manual laborer (he was an expert woodworker, among his many skills) to build houses around the country for needy families.

The range of interests expressed through his 32 books and conferences revealed a practical, results-oriented, humble Renaissance man.  His compassion and honesty infuse the Carter Center to this day.

He nourished the norms of personal and civic decency, dialogue, truth-telling and working for a just society, expressing his Christian faith in action.

Compare Jimmy Carter’s life with the rancid, corrupt, cowardly politicians spoiling today’s Washington landscapes.

There are legitimate criticisms of Carter’s foreign and domestic policies that others will examine. But overall, his legacy will live on to inspire future generations of Americans to elevate their expectations and strive toward them with civic dedication and commitment.

I was always in awe of how efficiently he used his time every day— and truly amazed by his relentless productivity. This alone would have been a worthy book by Mr. Carter were it not for his genuine humility.

@KillenMd @Dr_Oubre 🧡 Both perspectives are real. Our system seems to relegate the 2 most important players -pt & (caregiver) last

Also- pt isnt aware of the other things going on, all the crazy inter-department navigations etc (maybe better lol); sometimes they would appreciate being in the loop

[Don Lieber @donlieber]

@DrMariaNeira Chemistry is reality. Atmospheric saturation of CO2 alters weather, climate.

Doubling down on fossil fuels is absurd.

The clean energy revolution is here.

No group, no business, and no government can stop it.

Leaders at #COP29 can and must ensure it is fair and fast enough to limit global temperature rise to 1.5°C.

Never forget: Kevin McCarthy said, “I'll give you the truth why I'm not speaker. It's because one person, a member of Congress, wanted me to stop an ethics complaint because he slept with a 17-year-old.” That member is Matt Gaetz.
