American Medical Insurers, You Are Ignorant as Well as Brutal

…obviously. But you just couldn't be more absurd. Obamacare's website not quite fast enough? That's nothing. Nothing. Consider this letter from Aetna, just opened:

"Dear Simon Morton [a 4 year old boy whose doctor is at Texas Children's],

…we've designated your primary care physician's Steven S. Alley, MD practice [note the horrifying grammar] as a Patient Centered Medical Home practice for our network."

1. What does this mean?
2. Is this a sentence?
3. What does it have to do with my son?

Answers: 1. Nothing. 2. No. 3. Zip.

What a waste of trees, brain cells and my money.

  1. You mistake those words for a message from a human making a statement about a state of affairs. Rather it is a representation in words of a state in a database. That data has been attached to the network identity of your son.

    Pink Floyd said it this way,

    "Welcome my son, welcome to the machine. Where have you been? That's alright, we know where you've been."
