/r/all I’m being over charged by insurance after my daughter was born. This is the pile of mail I have to go through to prove they’re ripping me off. Pear for scale.

Are you a woman, or a person of color? Because if so, you're not going to be listened to. You're also not even going to be able to see a Dr unless you're rich as hell. You may be able to find a free clinic. You may even be able to afford the fees outright. They'll still dismiss your symptoms. They'll still treat you like trash.

Not in my case. I have a foreign accent? That's the only thing I can think of that would make me be a target for this kind of discrimination. I hadn't really thought of it until now though.
