#UnitedHealth Is Strategically Limiting Access to Critical Treatment for Kids With #Autism

Reporting Highlights

Secret Playbook: Leaked documents show that UnitedHealth is aggressively targeting the treatment of thousands of children with autism across the country in an effort to cut costs.

Critical Therapy: Applied behavior analysis has been shown to help kids with autism; many are covered by Medicaid, federal insurance for poor and vulnerable patients.

Legal Questions: Advocates told ProPublica the insurer’s strategy may be violating federal law.

#UHC are fucking monsters, and if I had the power to strip the wealth from them and give it to these families, I would do it without question.

#Propublica is the best news org speaking truth to power. If you’ve got some spare change, consider supporting them.

Some media outlets capitulated to Donald Trump before a single vote was cast. Some are already explaining how they plan to hold his incoming administration accountable. Here's @ProPublica's breakdown of what to expect from them. "In the 21st century, 'without fear or favor' means maintaining a fact-based, data-driven approach to journalism," writes Stephen Engelberg. "Our job is to give readers an independent, verifiable account of what’s happening, even if the president is calling us enemies of the people or bloodsuckers. At ProPublica, our mantra is that we bring the receipts to every story we publish."

Every week, we promote independent publishers who have their own presence in the fediverse via our #NewstodonFriday thread. Tell us in the comments if there's a media outlet you love that we might not have heard of.
