I want to bring some positive to the negative news this week involving special needs kids & healthcare. #Dateline #Disability #Nonverbal #love

You didn't lose a baby. You made a choice. I lost a baby. After that loss I found out I had cancer. I was advised to abort. We refused. Our son defied doctors in 2 states. If you're too weak to parent a Downs baby plenty of others will. Special needs kids are adopted every day. As the founder of a support group for families with special needs kids & a disability advocate, you have no idea what an incredible gift you deprived yourself & potential adopted parents of. Just because a child is born flawless doesn't mean they remain that way. Some issues don't show up until after birth. An accident can strike any time. What will you do then? Children are so much more than a diagnosis.

@mileshookeditup @3AM_Grind @BlakeSNeff I second that!

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@kbchameleons @3AM_Grind @BlakeSNeff He didn't know he'd actually have to prove it. We were all just supposed to believe him. But now he's gotta go do some video slicing & dicing. 😂😂

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@LisaL7278 @eternalfaith4 @3AM_Grind @BlakeSNeff They probably watched together while munching on crabgrass.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@eternalfaith4 @LisaL7278 @3AM_Grind @BlakeSNeff Pfffft. Yeah, that's what it is. 🙄🙄 I think you ate the wrong plant.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@HOLINESSTOJESUS @3AM_Grind @BlakeSNeff Too funny 😂😂😂

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@ryantdarby @3AM_Grind @BlakeSNeff Don't rush him. It takes time to manufacture the "real video." Simpletons can't work that fast.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@3AM_Grind @BlakeSNeff Ooooh. You're such a badass. Oh, wait. That's not the word I was looking for. Jackass. That's it. That's the word.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@LauraLoomer Crazy Candace will have some idiotic notion that it's not real. And the few simpletons who still follow her will buy into it. But day by day she keeps losing cult members. And when the trial exposes how warped she is she'll have nothing left. Her days of influence are marked.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

It's crazy. Sometimes the attempt at fixing it makes it worse. A patient with no health insurance pays more for services than someone with insurance. Providers, especially hospitals, negotiate extremely low rates, including some things that are free. To make up for those low prices they charge patients without coverage double & triple. Hospitals are the absolute worst. They get steep discounts from insurance carriers & money from both state & federal government.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

You don't need a bullet to get an insurance claim paid. You need intelligence & tenacity. A denial doesn't have to be the final answer. We have insurance commissioners & attorney generals for a reason. Use them! They're there for you. #Dateline

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@TheAtlasSociety Well put

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

She came at me with absurdity. I gave her facts. She couldn't cope with truth so she name-called & ran away. Typical cowardly actions of the weak. #Dateline

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@YautjaCane That's ignorant. Your employer & healthcare provider have far more to do with how much & what is paid out than a CEO.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@Jypseywheel3 @chiarachampagne Spot on. I've been trying to explain the insurance process & how it's not a single person who decides payout. It's a slew of people including a person's employer & provider involved.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@WesternJournalX Yep! She sure was!

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@Alexoo4 The fact that you're randomly bringing up pedophiles that has absolutely nothing to do with this case. Instead, of condemning violence you're using your political views to excuse it by pointing fingers. I

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

When people celebrated his murder, I knew society was irretrievably broken. Only evil to the core people celebrate murder. #Dateline

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

Not once did I say I approved. I'm explaining the process of insurance in hopes people understand it isn't a single person or company making decisions. It's several people involved. And no I don't work for them. Never have. I was an insurance specialist & negotiated contracts with multiple providers, state governments, & insurance carriers.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

@Alexoo4 Thanks for being exhibit A & proving my point. You think you ate with that batch of ignorance. In actuality, you just demonstrated how people like you excuse violence. It's diabolical.

[The Joan Zone @joangvs]

Insurance payouts are negotiated contracts between provider's & insurance. Your employer pays into the same insurance policy as you do. They say here is the highest amount we're going to pay. The insurer says okay, here's what you'll get for that amount. And many times it's the employer who says, don't pay on 1st claim, especially if it's a smaller company. Employers often need time to get the money together to pay the insurance quarterly. So the insurer delays payment until the employer can pay.
