Wow, check this language out (emphasis mine):

"Kaiser Permanente does not discriminate based upon: race; color; national origin; ancestry; religion; sex (including gender, gender identity, or gender-related appearance/behavior whether or not stereotypically associated with the person's assigned sex at birth); marital status; sexual orientation; or age of any contracting party, prospective contracting party, or person reasonably expected to benefit from the contract as a subscriber, enrollee, member, or otherwise."

I used to be a member before, 07/00 - 05/06 or thereabouts, and am just re-applying, so I don't anticipate any problems.

I'm always amused by the steps and results of Kaiser being such a huge org. They can't keep track of their prescriptions so I can get refills of drugs I don't even need anymore as long as I don't try and get too many altogether at once.

I find the entire concept of private health insurance (or in fact, private insurance of any sort) to be ridiculous and appalling, but that's still pretty darn nifty.

But without private health insurance, we'd have to have public health insurance! What are you, some kind of commie?!

[heron61.livejournal.com]

:) Most definitely!

Now, insert "The Commonwealth of Virginia" where "Kaiser Permanente" is and add it into the state constitution, and we'd have something there.
