Sometimes insurance companies get away with this kind of stupidity. I hope they get fired.

Also, if Insurance companies fund research, their only motive is to reduce costs in the long run, so researchers who are enjoying the funding may be tempted to come up with results that are company-friendly.

A disgrace!
