"There has been significant widespread misinformation about an update to our anesthesia policy. As a result, we have decided to not proceed with this policy change."
"To be clear, it never was and never will be the policy of Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield to not pay for medically necessary anesthesia services."
"The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) accused Anthem of unilaterally declaring that it will 'no longer pay for anesthesia care if the surgery or procedure goes beyond an arbitrary time limit.'"
"Driven by news of Thompson's death, users cited it as an example of bad behavior from an uncaring insurance industry that doesn't prioritize patient care."
