It would seem they have a conflict of interest. Choosing life or death for someone where not providing care would be less costly. Morality = / = legality.
It would seem to make sense to allow the doctors to be advocates for their patients, but I get that oversight is needed too. It’s not an easy situation to solve. There are clearly glaring issues in the current system.
In case it’s unclear murder is wrong if done by 1 person or a collective entity through an indirect series of actions.
E: fixed formatting = / = Without spaces changes to equal and not ‘not equal’
There are doctors and organizations who scam the insurance, and this is used for justifying these systems being in place; however in the for-profit world especially these are increasingly used as a tool for profit rather than loss protections.
fun fact: insurance companies allow that to happen because its cheaper than preventing it and hilariously why there is less fraud via medicare/medicaid.
so next time you hear that non-sense for an excuse know that it is false and entirely of their own making.
