So you're arguing with United for literally three months after I've already done the surgery on you to try and get paid. And then if the dispute gets big enough, they go, show me where you collected Alex's copay or we'll sue you. And it's like, well, it says a reasonable effort. And you and I both know Alex didn't have the $10,000 to pay. I'm chasing her down. Like, it's just not good.

Okay. And they're saying they're going to go after the pharmacy benefit managers.

Like, yeah. And I've had multiple congressmen and congresswomen and senators reach out that want to understand the insurance companies better. And if they were to just remove those incentives, then they're not at least making these billions of dollars in profit off of our prescription drugs.

Yes, yes. And I think that there's, there is a, it is known now, like the roof has been blown off this thing. It's not a little secret anymore.

I hope not. I hope not. There's, you know, part of politics is horse trading, right? And if they're going to implement things that hurt big pharma, which, you know, is what supposedly is being said, like some of these safety nets and protocols and vaccine protocols and, you know, taking off some of these protective covenants.
