‘SiCKO’ Health Care Card

This gave me a much needed chuckle plus I printed one out just in case 🙂

From Michael Moore’s website in connection with his new documentary about our terrible health care system comes the SiCKO Health Care card……

You now have the opportunity to print and carry your very own “‘SiCKO’ Health Care Card.” Playing the ‘SiCKO’ card has worked for a family in DeBary, Florida, whose daughter suffered profound hearing loss and was denied a cochlear implant. Her father sent a letter to Cigna asking, “has your CEO ever been in a film before?” Before he knew it, his daughter’s denial was overturned. It also worked for a family in Flint, Michigan who was stuck with a $66,000 medical bill until they posted their healthcare horror story on YouTube. Click here to see what happened next.

Download the PDF of the card below and follow these simple guidelines:

  1. Carry the card in your wallet with your insurance card.
  2. If denied treatment, show your SiCKO card to your doctor/insurer.
  3. Ask your insurer if they’d like to be in Michael Moore’s next movie, DVD, or appear on MichaelMoore.com.
  4. Tell them that, if denied, you will seek coverage from your local media.
  5. E-mail your story to michael@michaelmoore.com.

    I wonder if this card would help get Omegaven to Phoenix! Ha! I willing to try anything at this point!
    I am so glad that you were able to get it in Florida. That is such a blessing to your family that you didn’t have to up and move across country for it! It truly has been amazing for Connor. I was shocked to see absolutely no yellow in his eyes or skin.
    Good luck to you and Nora.
