Many breakthru "Hepatitis C" cures are now available. Healthcare.gov provides for insurance.
The insurance companies are maneuvering to not pay.
The cure is there, and too costly for most to afford on their own. The companies are waiting until the individual has extensive liver damage, then they will cover it. They simply deny coverage and for many this will be too late as cancer develops or the illness becomes terminal.
It appears if they deny coverage until "something breaks loose" then they will have saved their company money.
This comes at the cost of human lives, when we, in the USA already have a cure.
It's also being shipped to other countries for pennies on the dollar and developed in generic form.
Americans are being held captive by big pharmacy and insurance companies.
