WellPoint health insurance company has cut its employee's health insurance after having them lobby against health care reform. The insurance giant has blamed the recession for the cut backs. "Like many employers in today's economic environment, we are looking at all aspects of our business," wrote Chief Human Resources Officer Randy Brown.
According to Consumer Watchdog, WellPoint illegally pressured California employees this summer to fight health care reform. The proposals would hurt the company by "causing tens of millions of Americans to lose their private coverage and end up in a government-run plan," wrote the company's Anthem Blue Cross unit in a company e-mail.

It does seem odd that they would cut back on the service they provide. I wonder how significant the cuts were? I guess it is the way things are going right now.
