Look, #ABA is cruel and shouldn't be forced on anyone. That being said, celebrating #UHC choosing to deny coverage for it is NOT a fucking win!
An insurance company has absolutely no fucking business deciding which care is appropriate! The fact that they got it right once is a fluke, not a win. If you deny everything you're eventually going to deny something harmful.
This needs to be solved by educating medical professionals, and by making the practice illegal. This isn't the way!
