Overzealous HMOs

While many believe that HMOs are out to lunch on helping the folks afford healthcare, there's one that has missed the boat altogether: Independent Health is advertising that you deserve THE REDSHIRT TREATMENT.

Well *I* don't want the redshirt treatment! You know what happens to redshirts, don't you? If you're on a Starfleet vessel circa 2263-2268, and they beam down to a planet, moon, starbase, or starship, that redshirt has a very high likelihood of dying. That's because redshirts are security officers, whose job is to protect the other members of the landing party or to secure the area.

Sure enough, people are fleeing from Independent Health's plan as fast as they can, rejecting this insensitive affront to the millions of people in America who are Star Trek fans trying to find a good deal on healthcare.
