mandate insurance companies provide long-term in-patient and out-patient rehabilitation and therapy for brain injury.

Insurance companies typically discharge a patient by way of denial of benefits soon after a brain injury has occurred. Insurance companies know that brain injuries take a long time to heal and require a great deal of on-going therapy both in-patient and out-patient. Congresswoman Giffords, for example, received premium care and treatment through workman's compensation and very generous needs evaluations by medical facility doctors and staff regarding her in-patient and out-patient treatment and therapy needs. This same treatment and therapy regimen should be available to all in terms of care and treatment for brain injuries. Please support this petition. You or a loved one may someday need treatment and therapy, God forbid, that insurance companies deny long term support for.
