If one connects healthcare with the stock market, what more can be expected? The healthy dividend payouts to those who have done nothing, stockholders, is a big problem with all health care at this point. Also, staying ahead of fraud in health care treatment is an immense expense.
Am I excusing United Healthcare? Absolutely not, but I would like substantial, unbiased study reports to examine the entire issue. United is one of the largest but I suggest there isn't a health insurance company out there which will rubber stamp tests, treatments and care. Is healthcare a mess? Oh yeah, with medical professionals bailing out and medical student numbers have dropped for three years in a row.
Patients are regularly billed for their costs which include in the balance those who won't or can't pay. As I said, it's a mess. National healthcare, however, isn't the answer.
This same type of problem is "bleeding" over into home, auto and other insurance systems.
