Refusing payment for medical care and drugs has become a staple of health insurers’ business model, consumer advocates said. Less than 1% of claim denials are appealed and that’s money “left on the table that the insurers keep,” one said. https://t.co/fT4K9wvOOW

[Robin Fields @fieldsrobin]

State and federal regulators have the power to compel health insurers to reveal how often they refuse to pay for treatments, tests and drugs. Why are most plans’ denial rates still a closely held secret? https://t.co/fT4K9wvOOW

Add Nassau County to the list of places in New York where health officials have now found poliovirus in sewage. The others: Rockland, Orange and Sullivan counties and NYC

[Robin Fields @fieldsrobin]

The Nassau County sample has been genetically linked to the case in Rockland County, which paralyzed an unvaccinated man.

[Robin Fields @fieldsrobin]

@cdc 2/ In July 2020, 67% of Rockland County kids 2 and under had gotten the three recommended polio shots. That number now stands at 60% -- and in some zip codes it’s as low as 37.3%.
