No I have never seen or heard of anyone leaving their child at the hospital so they can go party.
I have heard of and know of people personally who have been denied coverage by insurance companies because of pre-existing health conditions. Under the HCRA, this will no longer happen.
I've heard of people and know of people personally who forgo necessary medical treatment because they don't have money or insurance. Under the HCRA, this will not happen so often.
I've heard of people dying because insurance companies refusing to do potentially life-saving surgeries-- more than one person, pre-HCRA.
So actually, we already have death panels-- people who decide if your 13 year old daughter's life is "worth it" to them to save.
