He took a bus and they don’t know where. He’s not in NYC anymore.

Most people don’t know what their neighborhood like nor could pick them from a line up

Yup

Same here in the USA.

We’re not that different.

The whole system is a sh&t show. Cardiologist in the US make like a half a million, in the Uk it’s like £150K.

People should be mad at their legislators for allowing it to get this way. This is not to say that insurers don’t have their problems but they are but one cog in the wheel of grift and dysfunction.

Cardiologists actually provide an extremely valuable service. Insurance companies suck money out of the system. Do you really not see the difference?

Do you want to negotiate prices with all of your doctors on your own?

Yes, actually. I’d also like to know the cost of a procedure or visit up front, thanks.

To add, I'd also like to know how many billable personnel (doctors and all) I am expected to receive invoices from, I hate the trickling in from outside providers. So shady.

agree

i especially loathe the Urgimeds who codify themselves as Specialists to double their copays and their charges. Health insurance does nothing.

One recently coded itself at time of billing as an ER.

such BS. And they are in BCBS as an in net work urgent care. such BS. BCBS lets them charge that, pays their share and then we are supposed to pay along and pay 2x or 3x!?

Let’s not forget the extra facility fees. My insurance gives me one annual mammogram that they claim to cover 100%. I looked on my insurance website and selected one of the providers. The mammogram was free but then I received a $600 facility charge. I fought with them for months before I finally got it paid.

That’s now prohibited by the No Surprises Act. (Guessing you had it done at a hospital not a doctors office? The provider also should have warned you.)

I went to a facility labeled a “hospital,” but it’s not really a hospital with patients in beds.

I called several times to ensure I would not be charged a fee and they didn’t want to commit to an answer.

DP

Learned recently that the lab tests I do at my PCP get billed to insurance as having been done at a hospital more than an hour away. The specimens are sent off site, but not to that hospital. The revenue cycle team apparently figured out some loophole to maximize their reimbursement. Apparently it’s not exactly fraudulent, but it is sketchy af, and it costs me more money.

Power move

Attempt to destabilize

Test case to see how nuts social media and mass media follows it

Test case if America will cannibalize itself with chaos and internal theories.

Deemed a success thus far.

I’m skeptical because I don’t find the passing of a ceo to be destabilizing.

+1 and America was already cannibalizing itself — if anything, this event united the country, as people across the political spectrum have had dreadful encounters with insurers.

Definitely for dexterity. It was cold that morning. Which is likely why he went inside the Starbucks for a bit to remain warmed up.

I think he had a spotter at the other hotel. That’s who was speaking to on the phone. And that’s how he knew the target was on the move and able to get into position only 5 minutes in advance.

This is the best explanation I have heard. Why else would he be in the phone minutes before.

And taking the bus means no car tracking or license plates.

If he had a spotter, this isn’t really about a denied claim.

Media is reporting the bullet casings and live rounds found at the scene had “deny” “defend” “depose” written on them, so seems like the killer’s motive (or motive of whoever hired the killer) is indeed along those lines.

Could that be diversionary if related to the cyberattack/Russia hackers?
One of the slogans was off I thought?
And LE wasn’t convinced it wasnt a diversionary tactic? At least yet.

This is Mideast-related shooter and power move, and he’s back there now laughing his @$$ off at all you myopic, self-centered, fixated insurance hater wannabes.

I think this is right.

NYPD said he left the city.

The backpack was found next to the carousel in a crowded area of Central Park. On Friday.

He must have a very good friend who left it there for him.

No
You just walk there with your hood up and mask on and toss it there. Bfd.then keep walking. Photos weren’t released for hours

I suspect they will find a change of clothes and manifesto.

Had no one on the bus seen the news afterward? Surely someone in the bus recognized him when they saw news reports, even just to say, “oh, I saw him on my bus enroute to DC.”

This is predictable. But you never know what intentional disinformation police put out to get the perp to relax.

Mostly lowlife drunks ride Greyhound buses these days. They don’t look at the news. But a foreigner won’t know this.

Whoever is trying to orchestrate the narrative is making it up day to day.

Wow, that’s a pretty terrible comment. A lot of people take buses now because they can’t afford trains or airfare.

Why would Thompson come out this early?

This definitely was someone from the inside organization.

So at what time did they call of the meeting?

It wasn’t canceled. It had already begun and they cut it off in the middle of the earnings call shortly after the shooting saying it was due to a medical situation.

I don’t know how many times people need to hear this. I’m not directing this to PP but to the many people who keep commenting how did he know where he was etc. etc. This was a regularly scheduled quarterly earnings report. The date the time all of it is known in advance and widely publicized across multiple news sites and countless apps There was nothing secret or special about this meeting. Anyone can go to the company website and sign up for example to be on the call. You don’t have to be a shareholder to access any of the information. It’s all completely public. Go to the earnings whisperer website or download the app QARTR for example and you will see all of the earnings calls scheduled for a given date.

How did he know then that he was in another hotel and walking to the meeting? Meeting started at 8 AM. He was ready by 6;40 ... How did he know he was not in that hotel itself... Something is fishy.

Exactly. I’m thinking more and more that Thompson wanted to be dead. They need to be looking at all of his banking records to see anything unusual.

Or Thompson wants people to think he’s dead.

If this were a crime movie, the fbi would be involved in helping the informant fake his death.

I don’t think that’s what happened, but it’s a plausible theory.

He’s literally in the morgue.

Is he?

I mean, have you watched Black List or any similar shows?

It’s early, but I’m calling this: dumbest DCUM comment of the day
