DEMAND THAT INSURANCE COMPANIES PAY FOR HEP C TREATMENT & NOT WAIT FOR DISEASE TO OCCUR. DEMAND PEOPLE BEFORE PROFITS.

HEPATITIS C TREATMENT: DENIED BY INSURANCE COMPANIES. DEMAND GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION. THERE IS NOW AVAILABLE TREATMENT FOR HEP C WITH A 97-99% CURE RATE BUT PATIENTS CAN'T GET THE TREATMENT. THEY ARE TOLD THEY MUST WAIT UNTIL THEY HAVE MORE ADVANCED DISEASE. WAIT FOR LIVER CANCER, MORE CIRRHOSIS OR LIVER FAILURE. INSURANCE CO'S ARE PUTTING PROFIT OVER PATIENTS. COST OF TREATMENT IS HIGH BUT COST FOR TREATMENT OF ADVANCED DISEASE IS HIGHER. PT'S ARE FORCED TO APPEAL THEN DENIED. LEGAL ACTION IS SLOW BUT IN PROGRESS. WHAT ABOUT THE PERSONAL COST TO THE PATIENT AND FAMILIES. WHAT IF A CANCER WAS FOUND EARLY BUT INSURANCE TOLD THE PATIENT : SORRY, WAIT TILL YOU ARE SICKER FOR TREATMENT. THIS SHOULD BE A CRIME AND AMERICA AND OUR GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOT TOLERATE THIS. I BEG ALL TO SIGN THANKS
