Insurance companies have to much say in our medical care that is up to licensed trained physicans: Medical reviews done by RN is not Dr.

Children are helpless and should be guaranteed heath insurance. We should NEVER EVER punish parents by jeopardizing the health of a child.

Insurers have every right to charge more for a child outside the norms, b/c they do present a greater risk, but should still cover them.

To discriminate because of size is tragic. We have become a society of haters and this is just one more added to the stupidity.

This is the problem with labeling everything. When you make "low tone" a "condition" it's now ripe for labeling as "pre-existing."

We knew as soon as we saw the story it had to be United H.C. They deny EVERYTHING!

Yet another reason for a strong Nat'l Health Plan. What if you are a Small Person (Midget); is it then descrimination?

I am a single 50 yr.gentelman and enjoy all ltttle people (kids). I have never had a news story get me so freaken mad. HEALTH REFORM NOW !

This is ridiculous that a child is being denied health coverage because of their size, especially a toddler.

Wow. Insurance companies don't help their case much.

if they are willing to insure the parents, insuring the dependents should be automatic.

This is why the government needs to step in - this has to stop.

This just underscores the need for TOTAL reform, and Universal coverage. Insurers shouldn't be able to exclude ANYONE.

The insurance company is cutting their own throat on this one. But I don't throw in with nationalized health coverage either.

There are some serious issues regarding body image as kids grow up. What's the message when adults are already sizeing them up?

It's crazy to me that they would deny anyone. I don't care about pre-existing condition, size, gender, age, or what!

This is why we need a public option. Health insurance carriers are corrupt.

What happened to EVERY child getting health care.

A single-payer health care system would stop all of this nonsense and criminality. Contact your senator or representative TODAY!

I am very curious about the ' Insurers should have discretion' voters here. Who are you working for and how much Insurace Stock do you have

This is what we have come to. We are turning out backs on children! Health insurance companies and their inhumane policies have got to go!

And if the government wants to provide an alternative insurance, they should cover any person rejected by other companies, no matter why.

Perhaps if you were allowed by government to have access to insurance companies across state lines, they would find another cheaper insurer

The insurance business practices of today are immoral. The days of making profits off human pain should be over NOW.
