@rchusid@med-mastodon.comMessage of Delay, Deny, Depose on shell casings in shooting of Brian Thompson appear to confirm suspicions that his killing was related to United Healthcare's practices of denying claims to boost profits. Hopefully this will lead to greater scrutiny of the healthcare insurance industry--which should be eliminated & replaced by Medicare for All.

@rchusid I’m 90% sure will be found to be schizophrenic and 30% probability his care was not actually denied.
@jgordon We won't know unless he is found. My bet is that it is near 100% that he has a complaint re his coverage (or coverage for his family). It is possible that his complaint can be legitimate or could be because he doesn't understand his insurance coverage.
There is also a middle ground--such as denied if out of network. That is legit under his policy but should not be a problem and would not be an issue under Medicare for All.
"Police are exploring whether the words found indicate a motive, pointing to a popular phrase in the insurance industry: 'delay, deny, defend.'”
What sleuths!
