There's more than one way to run a company, including one that is not maximally short-sighted.
Maybe UHC is regularly getting ripped off by doctors or pharma and they're distrustful? They have a share of the facts and can be open about this.
Laughing in the face of people relying on you in critical situations to make a quick buck is simply indecent and certainly not sustainable. More than one monopoly that got greedy has faltered.
- SilasX 2y agoSo much this. I get if the system incentivizes health insurers to act this way, and I get that it's unreasonable to expect unilateral disarmament of anyone. But FFS, surely they have to realize this situation is unsustainable? Shouldn't we, at a minimum, expect them to be sharing their insight into why they (feel they) are forced to act this way, and what reforms would fix it? If all they ever do is cynically game a system that they know can't last, and which they know is creating people with an extreme grudge against them ... yeah I'm fine with calling that some combination of irrational/evil.
