NKR Sues State Farm for Discrimination Against Living Donor
« on: April 14, 2021, 01:04:25 PM »

A lawsuit has been filed in the Superior Court of Arizona in Maricopa County, with the support of the National Kidney Registry, on behalf of Good Samaritan kidney donor, Mr. Kipp Wingo, a veterinarian from Phoenix, Arizona, against the State Farm Life Insurance Company. Mr. Wingo was improperly denied life insurance, based solely upon his status as a kidney donor, without any additional reasons for denial.

There is some manner of ignorance with State Farm .....or maybe they know something we don't?
