I know we facin a recession But the babies yall makin gonna make it the great depressionlol. Yeah this is a BIG issue going on in the world. That babies are being rejected by health insurance companies. Rocky Mountain Health Plans rejected Alex Lange saying he had a "pre-existing condition" of obesity and was therefore a high-risk patient.
Alex is 25 inches long, weighs 17 pounds, and falls into the 99th percentile for height and weight for his age. Rocky Mountain insurance said that it was industry standard to deny coverage to new patients above the 95th percentile. They said the rule includes babies but this was the first time they had ever actually rejected one. Yesterday, the Denver Post reported that Rocky Mountain Health Plans changed its decision and granted baby Alex coverage. "But he's 4 months old. He's breast-feeding. We can't put him on the Atkins diet or on a treadmill. There is just something absurd about denying an infant [coverage]."Alex's parents were seeking coverage because their existing insurer had raised rates 40 percent after Alex was born. So its looking like ladies need to stop popping out BIG babies or you won't be getting coverage. Cum on now reallly people? Get Real!
