The targeted killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December became a turning point in the public's growing frustration with the health insurance industry.
Despite numerous headlines and reports pointing to a rise in health insurance claim denials, the system's fragmented nature makes it hard to get an exact count.
Most consumers don't appeal denials: Fewer than 1% did, and insurers upheld 56% of those appeals.
