Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield said in a statement that its decision to backpedal resulted from “significant widespread misinformation” about the policy. “To be clear, it never was and never will be the policy of Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield to not pay for medically necessary anesthesia services,” the statement said. “The proposed update to the policy was only designed to clarify the appropriateness of anesthesia consistent with well-established clinical guidelines.” Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield would have used "physician work time values," which is published by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, as the metric for anesthesia limits; maternity patients and patients under the age of 22 were exempt. But Dr. Jonathan Gal, economics committee chair of the American Society for Anesthesiologists, said it's unclear how CMS derives those values. In mid-November, the American Society for Anesthesiologists called on Anthem to “reverse the proposal immediately,” saying in a news release that the policy would have taken effect in February in New York, Connecticut and Missouri. It's not clear how many states in total would have been affected, as notices also were posted in Virginia and Colorado . People across the country registered their concerns and complaints on social media, and encouraged people in affected states to call their legislators. Some people noted that the policy could prevent patients from getting overcharged. Gal said the policy change would have been unprecedented, ignored the “nuanced, unpredictable human element” of surgery and was a clear “money grab.” “It’s incomprehensible how a health insurance company could so blatantly continue to prioritize their profits over safe patient care,” he said. "If Anthem is, in fact, rescinding the policy, we’re delighted that they came to their senses.” Prior to Anthem's announcement Thursday, Connecticut comptroller Sean Scanlon said the “concerning” policy wouldn't affect the state after conversations with the insurance company. And New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said in an emailed statement Thursday that her office had also successfully intervened. The insurance giant’s policy change came one day after the CEO of UnitedHealthcare , another major insurance company, was shot and killed in New York City.

The Toronto-based artist has built a life-sized Formula 1 car, a three-metre-high cowboy boot, and an elephant made from more than 225 kilograms of rope. Her latest big project — both figuratively and literally — is a goalie mask, which she's made out of sticks used by players in the Professional Women's Hockey League. Called "The Inaugural Six" — referring to the league's six founding teams — it stands four feet by six feet (1.21 metres by 1.83 metres). The giant mask will be unveiled at Toronto's Eaton Centre to help the PWHL celebrate the puck dropping on the league's second season, which starts this week. Art 101 The divide between art and sports can be vast, but sometimes art and sports have been friends CBC Arts spoke to Douglas about why she makes art about sports, how the sticks made her feel closer to the players, and why she's stoked to have her art in a mall. CBC: Why did you want to do this project? Briony Douglas: As a woman, I believe empowering women in sports is super important. Any way that I can do that through art is also very important to me. I think art is an unbiased way to begin a conversation and spark people's conversations about things that are important in the world. I loved the league already, and I'm super excited to help highlight them in this unique way. CBC: OK, but why this specific thing? Why a goalie mask made out of old hockey sticks? BD: I love creating art out of items that people wouldn't usually create art out of. I think finding beauty in things that have been discarded or upcycled speaks to a lot of things in our lives. And I love a challenge. I have ADHD, so something different every day is exciting for me. Learning how to navigate fibreglass hockey sticks into a giant goalie mask was definitely not not a challenge. Artist Briony Douglas (Justin Jasmins) CBC: Fibreglass hockey sticks, I'm assuming, are a new medium for you. What's that like and what was the learning curve like? BD: Everything has a learning curve. That's what makes it exciting. That's what thankfully ended up being pretty straightforward ... Do you remember the dinosaurs that we would make when we were children out of the wooden slats? CBC: Sort of? BD: We essentially did that well with the goalie mask. So we would have a very strong base, and sturdy as well. And then from there, we learned how to cut and drill into the sticks, and then adhered it all, and did a little welding. So it was a learning curve, but not the worst learning curve I've ever had. CBC: This feels like a very silly question, but also one that must be asked. How did you go about collecting the sticks, how many are there and how long did it take you to get all of them? BD: OK, this is not a silly question. It actually is my favorite part of this whole story. So [the project's corporate sponsor] Royale asked the league to send upcycled sticks from all six teams. What's really cool is that there's names on every single stick., so every time I laid down a stick, I knew whose stick it was. So, in a lot of different angles of the sculpture, you can see the different players' names on it ... I can't articulate enough just how cool that is. Even the way that the different sticks are taped at the top by each player, they're all so different and so unique. CBC: Do you feel like you know the players a little now, after spending so much time looking at their sticks? BD: It's funny, I was on the Toronto Life [Rising Stars] list last week , and [ Toronto Sceptres players] Sarah Nurse, Natalie Spooner and Blayre Turnbull were [at the launch party] , and in my head I wanted to be like, "Guys! We're best friends. I just made a sculpture out of your sticks." I feel close to them without actually knowing them that well. Group Chat The Professional Women's Hockey League is making history — and selling out arenas CBC: So this piece is going to be on display at the Eaton Centre. On one hand, technically, it's just a mall. On the other hand, it looms pretty large as a Toronto landmark. What's it like having your art displayed somewhere where it's super accessible to people who may not inherently be art people? BD: I love it. And I feel like, not to go back to the pandemic, but I feel like for years, we just sat behind screens, having to view art through screens. So people being able to stand there and see my art in real life is, like, my favorite, favorite thing ever. Watching a little kid walk up to the art and be like, "Wait, that's hockey sticks?" And then the parent explaining to them the story behind it, I don't think there's any better feeling in the world than that. CBC: This isn't the first time you've done art about sports . What speaks to you about sports as a theme? BD: I think that for myself, I didn't see women creating art in these categories before, so I want to be that for other people. Like, just last week, I had a mom and her daughter come by the shop to look at the different things we're working on. [Ser] daughter's excited about art. And I just think if I can even be that spark for one little girl, that's pretty friggin' cool. The Inaugural Six is on display at the CF Toronto Eaton Centre (220 Yonge St.) in Toronto until Nov. 28.

UCLA stops South Carolina's 43-game win streakMr Carter, a former peanut farmer, served one term in the White House between 1977 and 1981, taking over in the wake of the Watergate scandal and the end of the Vietnam War. After his defeat by Ronald Reagan, he spent his post-presidency years as a global humanitarian, winning the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. His death on Sunday was announced by his family and came more than a year after he decided to enter hospice care. He was the longest-lived US president. His son, Chip Carter, said: “My father was a hero, not only to me but to everyone who believes in peace, human rights and unselfish love. “My brothers, sister and I shared him with the rest of the world through these common beliefs. “The world is our family because of the way he brought people together, and we thank you for honouring his memory by continuing to live these shared beliefs.” Mr Carter is expected to receive a state funeral featuring public observances in Atlanta and Washington DC before being buried in his home town of Plains, Georgia. A moderate democrat born in Plains in October 1924, Mr Carter’s political career took him from the Georgia state senate to the state governorship and finally the White House, where he took office as the 39th president. His presidency saw economic disruption amid volatile oil prices, along with social tensions at home and challenges abroad including the Iranian revolution that sparked a 444-day hostage crisis at the US embassy in Tehran. But he also brokered the Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel, which led to a peace treaty between the two countries in 1979. After his defeat in the 1980 presidential election, he worked for more than four decades leading the Carter Centre, which he and his late wife Rosalynn co-founded in 1982 to “wage peace, fight disease, and build hope”. Mrs Carter, who died last year aged 96, had played a more active role in her husband’s presidency than previous first ladies, with Mr Carter saying she had been “my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished”. Earlier this year, on his 100th birthday, Mr Carter received a private congratulatory message from the King, expressing admiration for his life of public service.Jimmy Carter age: How old was the longest-living president in US history?
