I hope I'm not that 1 in 5 the next time I need heart surgery, especially if it's an emergency (which is a real possibility).

Being in the industry I have to take slight offense to the assumption that these claims were denied for illegal means. there is no proof that this is the case. You are inferring something without any proof, this is something that you jump all over conservatives for,(birthers, death panels etc) without substantial proof this is irresponsible on your part to make the claim.
