Reply to Family Dynamics and Doctors' Emotions Drive Useless End-of-Life Care. Surveys repeatedly indicate that nearly all people would rather die peacefully at home, yet painful, long-shot treatments remain common, and efforts to reduce usage have failed by Wagamaga
Well either the Hospital gets the money in your insurance or the insurance company keeps it.
You don't matter anymore, you're about to die, this is about who gets to keep all that money you had to pay but didn't really use, not your family, which company with a CEO gets it, the Insurance can't declare you dead, but the hospital can justify torturing you for 3 more months to squeeze the last bit of juice out of you.
MONEY!!!!!
It's an American symptom
