  1. Will #AI fix prior #authorization —or make it worse?

    If you’re like me, you or a loved one has struggled through the process of gaining pre-approval for the #medical care that your #physician has recommended. Personal stories abound regarding the tribulations of #patients as they go through hoops to get their #health #insurer to pay for certain #prescription #medications , medical procedures, and more.

  2. #Insurer Agrees to Pay Millions for Failing to Fix Errors That Made It Harder for Customers to Get #MentalHealth Care

  3. #ClimateCrisis on track to destroy #capitalism, warns top #insurer
    The world is fast approaching temperature levels where insurers will no longer be able to offer cover for many #climate risks, said Gunther Thallinger, on the board of Allianz SE, one of the world's biggest #insurance companies. He said that without insurance, which is already being pulled in some places, many other financial services become unviable, from #mortgages to investments.

  5. " Citizens Property Insurance Corp., the state-backed nonprofit home insurance company was set up to be an #insurer of last resort for those who can’t find coverage in the private market. Citizens is by far the largest provider in [#Florida].

    But now, with #HurricaneHelene and #HurricaneMilton both making landfall in Florida within just days of each other, the insurer will almost certainly have to pay out billions of dollars in claims.

    Can Citizens stay afloat? "

  7. #Insurer’s Retreat in #Florida
    If #FL get hit, #DeSantis's will go from anti-woke crusading to beg gov for money. The gov will bail it out. Florida will go right back to anti-woke crusading w/Americans paying to rebuild uninsurable homes. This might be frustrating, but it's good practice for what'll happen when conservatives start taking #climatechange seriously in decade or two because feds will buy up soon-to-be-submerged beachfront land at its peak prior market value

  8. "#Chubb, the world's biggest property and casualty #insurer, said it would from now on provide coverage for #oil and #gas extraction projects only to clients that proved they had plans to reduce #methane #emissions."

    Insurers are driven by actuarial analysis (that is, the bottom line). The conclusion of this must have been that insurance payouts will be a lot lower if you curb #climate pollution.
