On a serious note (I know, I know ... so inappropriate for our fellow Surlyites, Surlyitians?) health insurance companies are all over ai software programs.
Uploading their guidelines (some companies ran their internal guidelines through their finance and accounting departments to determine what is the least amount of coverage at the lowest cost they can supply while still ostensibly complying with the Mental Health Parity Act of 2008), uploading outside sources which support their guidelines and then, implementing this system.
This effectively will allow them to fire most of their direct care staff employees and authorization for treatment and the payment for expensive treatment will be made by silicone based intelligence.
If you think the medical and mental health systems right now are broken... just wait. These professionals are already being forced to utilize medical guidelines drafted by insurance companies and if they choose not to accept insurance... they effectively have no practice.
Unemployment will go up, the profits for health insurance companies will explode upward and our feckless politicians on both sides of the aisles do their, "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" routines.
Ok.. this public service announcement is over. Now back to your regularly scheduled Surly-ites memes.
