Why does it take the House or the Senate to make a bill to force insurance companies to pay for HIV testing? They should have been doing this a long time ago. Insurance companies are out of control in the United States. They charge high premiums and always find ways to deny coverage or services. We need CNN to do a broadcast of the worst insurance companies in the United States, lets put some preasure on them.
I like the idea of routine testing, but am opposed to what they may do with that information. Having been one of those who has survived for over 20 years with HIV/AIDS, I don't want to have others deal with the stigma. However, I do want them to get treatment ASAP. That's what has kept me alive this long.

what a f***ing joke. My health insurance is refusing to pay for my VL. What good is a test without care? I'm so sick of this crap...test test test, then if you test poz, "you're on your own".
