Shawn Kennedy at American Journal of Nursing writes about fighting the system when her family insurance refused to cover her son’s accidental injury.

He had a pre-existing condition of being young and athletic, and dislocated his shoulder for the second time.

He should not have made that ‘bad choice’. If he ever has another accident, he’ll know now to dislocate the other shoulder. His insurance company would prefer it that way.

I hope their denying days are numbered. Keep vigilant, nurses, and anyone else who might ever get sick.
