Not entirely.
Man has a couple stents put in around his heart.
Ins Co calls the Doc and asks why the man was not put on X medication, which is to treat high blood pressure?
Doc says the man
never had high blood pressure.
Ins Co says their records show people on X, do better after getting stents, therefore the man takes X or they won't pay for the stent operation.
That's managed care.
