I know many people will shit on Kaiser for being a health insurance company, but as a person who has work through Cigna, UHC, Humana, Kaiser was the only health insurance that I felt people were being helped, had access to that help. With no hassles.
It's a fucked up system, but kaiser was one of the few I would take a slap for. Everyone else can get shit on.
It's the Costco of health insurance, and given the competition, that's a good thing. Literal one-stop-shop for healthcare is pretty fucking nice in the world of networks, specialists, referrals, and "coverage".
But yeah, they fucked up here.
If I'm not mistaken, Kaiser Permanente is a co-op (or maybe just non-profit? I forget), which would explain why they treat their employees like human beings.
I've long said that Kaiser is great, but should not be: the service they provide should be the baseline everyone gets, not exceptional by comparison.
Everyone deserves what they provide, or better. But it's nearly impossible to find anything in the US that's even as good as them without paying unholy amounts of money
