I wish I could answer that, Tom. It seems so hopeless.

Whenever I speak to a reviewer (usually a physician or pharmacist) who works for an insurance company, calling to deny my request for a test or med for one of my patients, I quote them from Solzhenitsyn: "Can a man do without ideas of his own about good and evil, and merely derive them from the printed instructions and verbal orders of his superiors?" They usually laugh (although one neurologist recently got upset and lectured me about "respect").

We are reduced to passive resistance, I fear. Oh well, as Gandhi said: "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." One can only hope...
