MINNETONKA, MN—Calling the behavior mean-spirited and over the line, poor little insurer UnitedHealth Group told reporters Monday that cancer patient Belinda Rollins had harassed the company until it finally agreed to cover her bill.

“That woman called us constantly, from the moment our phone lines opened until the time they closed, pressuring us to pay $45,000 for the timespent in the hospital, and we felt so threatened, we eventually did what she told us to,” said CEO Andrew Witty, adding that UnitedHealth Group had also received a series of intimidating emails from Rollins in which she bullied the innocent company into admitting both that she had met her deductible and that its policy explicitly covered her chemotherapy.

Cancer patient in any other developed country gets treated for free.

When I had cancer (10 years ago), I switched one Blue Cross policy to a different Blue Cross policy. BC refused to send a letter of continuous coverage to BC, and BCBSM wouldn't cover my chemo for 90 days because I couldn't prove I had been insured.

Awe that poor insurance company :(

Harass an insurance co? Fake news, can’t be done.

What about the shareholders! 😩

Doesn't she realize that whining makes you socially unattractive?

Sadly this has become reality for too many of us 😭 You pay in for decades and when you finally need your insurance they say no. It f$ing sucks... I'm talking to you Cigna

The audacity

She better be careful. They might accuse her of domestic terrorism next and put her in jail.

Disgusting behaviour. How could they just decide to kill the cancer without it's consent?

It's disgusting how patients abuse the system just for a chance to live

I bet she’s controlling with he husband, too. “Go to work! Take care of me!” Blah, blah, blah.
