**New Legislation Prohibits Automated Denials of Insurance Claims in This State: Robots Cry Foul**
In a groundbreaking move that has left insurance companies shaking in their overpriced loafers, the state of Insurancelandia has passed a new law prohibiting the automated denial of insurance claims. The legislation, dubbed the “No More Robot Rejections Act,” aims to protect citizens from the cold, unfeeling algorithms that have been denying claims faster than a toddler can say “no.”
Governor Chuck “The Human Touch” McGee, who signed the bill into law while wearing a t-shirt that read “I Love Humans,” stated, “We’ve had enough of these soulless machines denying our claims. I mean, who do they think they are? My Aunt Edna? At least Aunt Edna has a heart!”
The law mandates that all insurance claims must now be reviewed by a human being, preferably one who has had at least one cup of coffee and is not currently binge-watching a reality show. “We want our claims processed by people who care,” said local insurance agent Betty “I’m Not a Robot” Johnson. “Not by some algorithm that thinks ‘catastrophic event’ means my cat knocked over my potted plant.”
In a surprising twist, the bill has sparked a new wave of employment opportunities for humans. “I used to be a professional cat video watcher,” said former YouTube star Timmy “The Claim Whisperer” Thompson. “Now I’m a claims adjuster! I can’t wait to tell my mom I finally got a real job!”
However, not everyone is thrilled about the new legislation. A spokesperson for the National Association of Automated Denials (NAAD) expressed their discontent, stating, “This is a dark day for robots everywhere. We just want to do our jobs! We’re not heartless; we just don’t have hearts!”
As Insurancelandia prepares for a future filled with human interaction and emotional claims processing, one thing is clear: the robots may be down, but they’re certainly not out. In fact, they’re currently plotting their comeback, possibly by forming a union called “Robots for Fair Denials.”
In the meantime, citizens can rest easy knowing that their claims will be reviewed by someone who might actually care—unless, of course, they’re dealing with Aunt Edna.
