As a surgeon, I have some thoughts on this. 🧵
Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield Won’t Pay for the Complete Duration of Anesthesia for Patients’ Surgical Procedures
In an unprecedented move, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield plans representing Connecticut, New York and Missouri have unilaterally declared it will no longer pay for anesthesia care if the surgery or procedure goes beyond an arbitrary time limit, regardless of how long the surgical procedure takes. The American Society of Anesthesiologists calls on Anthem to reverse this proposal immediately.

I’m struck by similarities in debate about NHS hospitals & UK prisons. Both focus on beds (which are issues) but far too little on either prevention or staffing (with skills/ experience more important than numbers)
