    Of course, I definitely didnt mean to minimize the issue. It really is insane there’s all these ridicululous middlemen and compromises that add to whatever condition as a threat to people’s health

      Nah I didn’t read your original comment as minimizing it, but rather saw it as someone who might not be from the USA. It sounded like genuine shock to how life-saving meds could just be flat-out denied for somebody.

There are people who try once and give up and I just want people to be aware of what parallel structures or processes might be available to help give that a second look
