Google Still Sicko: NO Health URL, But Michael Moore Healthcare Card
Michael Moore is REALLY making Google Health Sicko!
While Google’s Health Architect, Adam Bosworth, has been touring the country and blogging up a storm to pitch all his big consumerization of healthcare ideas, Michael Moore has actually released a medical product for America’s medical consumers.
Google Health URL is still but a lofty healthcare goal for Bosworth. Sicko Moore, though, is putting his healtcare ideas into real world action:
You now have the opportunity to print and carry your very own “‘SiCKO’ Health Care Card.” Playing the ‘SiCKO’ card has worked for a family in DeBary, Florida, whose daughter suffered profound hearing loss and was denied a cochlear implant. Her father sent a letter to Cigna asking, “has your CEO ever been in a film before?” Before he knew it, his daughter’s denial was overturned.
Print the card and follow these simple guidelines:
- Carry the card in your wallet with your insurance card.
- If denied treatment, show your SiCKO card to your doctor/insurer.
- Ask your insurer if they’d like to be in Michael Moore’s next movie or DVD.
- Tell them that, if denied, you will seek coverage from your local media.
