When a cartoon cuts this close - laughing is all but impossible

13. Mrs. 1SBM's 84 yr. old Aunt ...

got a letter this week from a Insurance Company denying a portion of her claim. She had her Thyroid removed 3 years ago and stayed one night to recover. The insurance company is denying the hospital stay as "medicalto her ly unnecessary." She appealed an initial denial ... the letter she received was notifying her that the appeal had been denied.

Why? Because ... nothing bad happened during her overnight stay. I kid you not! They said since she didn't experience much pain, no infection or excessive bleeding, and she was able to eat ... she could have done that at home and rushed back to the hospital if something bad had happened.

I'm writing her second appeal and I struggling not to write just one word: :Really?"

Any medical folks out there? Please PM me ... I have some general, non-diagnostic questions regarding adverse home recoveries.
