Copying my comment from another thread:
Okay, no. Anthem were looking to implement this in Connecticut, New York and Missouri, with Colorado and other states being brought into this policy later on.
Anthem has only backed off this policy in Connecticut. The other states are still currently on the table.
65This article doesn't say it's only Connecticut.
18Source?
12Anthem backed off from Connecticut and NY.
"After hearing from people across the state about this concerning policy, my office reached out to Anthem, and I'm pleased to share this policy will no longer be going into effect here in Connecticut," Connecticut Comptroller Sean Scanlon wrote on X on Thursday.
"Last night, I shared my outrage at a plan from Anthem to strip away coverage from New Yorkers who had to go under anesthesia for surgery," (Gov. Kathy Hochul) said in the statement. "We pushed Anthem to reverse course and today they will be announcing a full reversal of this misguided policy. Don't mess with the health and well-being of New Yorkers -- not on my watch."

KILLING THE RULERS WORKS.
48I guess the only way to enact real change in this country is to murder a billionaire...
I'm hoping for much more real change in this country, and I support anyone with enough heroism to murder a CEO.
45It feels like the mods have given up on trying to keep the bloodlust for CEOs at bay. Every other thread is just littered with appreciation for the gunman. I'm quite ok with that.
14Can we talk freely now? The causes of our problems have address. They can only promote so many executives before they wise up.
9Freely? No, not completely.
But I will say how much I admire America's founding fathers. They recognized their chains, killed their oligarchs, and they didn't stop killing until they were truly free. "Live free or die", truly inspirational.

National rally for Purge
4Not all CEOs are billionaires. We should focus on billionaires
2Higher networth = more points for a successful kill.
In a video game.

They found out what happens if they fuck around.
41Nah they'll just let the heat die down.
13Another log in the fire keeps it burning.

In a board meeting, they huddle together joking and jostling. “Haha, what are those passed out pieces of shit gonna do, shoot us?” The roar of laughter gradually subsides as a soft set of chirps make their way around the table, and everyone checks their phones. Most notifications read to the effect of “have you seen this??” with a link to an article.
The mood in the room grows colder and more pragmatic as they begin weighing their safety against their wages.
30How does that math work out when their wages are worth about as much as 1000 average human lives?
12My Econ professor would have quickly assessed the situation and commanded them to shut up and deny care. My ethics professor would have brought a spare magazine.

28Let’s see how long it takes for mods to censor this type of talk.

This is a HORRIBLE Decision that will Save THOUSANDS of Lives! WHY did that Poor CEO have to be Assassinated? If only He survived and we got to have Insurance Companies tell us we can't have Anesthesia for our Surgeries!
21Here is the little trick that insurance companies play with anesthesia. You go to a hospital that is in your plan, but every person that sees you in the hospital is not on the same plan. When you go in for surgery the anesthesiologist is not on your plan so you get to pay the full price not even the limited coverage. It is not like you get to ask while your going under am I covered? What a racket these shit stains have.
20The guy that took a shot at Trump and the guy who killed this CEO are heroes of the working class.
18In all proposed states or just one of the proposed states?
14Weird timing.
But come out to the street here though, we'll talk it over some more...
13This is a valid tactic
