Attention: If you know of people who are suing or if you are suing, please contact me at alanfranciscus@hcvadvocate.org

There are many insurance companies that are denying coverage of HCV medications to only the sickest of patients. I am working on a brief article describing why people are filing lawsuits against these insurance companies. It will be a brief overview, and I will not be using names. I am looking for quotes from people who are suing or are thinking of suing insurance companies. For example, one person told me that to be turned down for the HCV medications wasn’t medically ethical or morally just and from a monetary standpoint they were angry because they had been paying their medical premiums their entire life. Now when they needed their insurance, the company bailed on them.
