Health Care Fit for Animals
First time originating a post, so I apologize if someone has already offered this link:

1. I think it has been posted before, but it's definitely worth posting again.
It's an article that brings tears to your eyes.

2. Excellent piece from the mouth of a whistleblower/ex-insurance exec.

I might add my animals get affordable top notch veterinary care, and I don't have vet care insurance. If my vets would treat me, I'd trust them to do so.

I missed this article the first time it was posted, so thank you for putting it up again.

3. You're welcome.
I first heard of Wendell Potter when he appeared on Bill Moyers Journal.

His appearance there was quite moving, also.
