      Now admit that you’re part of the reason why it doesn’t work as well as it should.

      oh he admits the US healthcare system is flawed? awesome. maybe he should do a talk about it in manhattan.

      It was never supposed to and it’s these fucks that turned it into the disgrace that it is

    15. iDontRememberCorn on

      So you’re saying you DON’T want a bullet in your head? Interesting.

      Man I can’t imagine how much worse it would be if they could deny due to preexisting conditions

    19. Archangel1313 on

      Somehow, I don’t think he means that the same way the rest of us do.

      It works exactly as it’s designed. To extract resources from the weak and give it to elite parasites

      We could have a system with 95% approval and people would still say this. Not newsworthy.

      “focused on improving the experiences of consumers,”

      They’re not consumers, you asshole. They’re PATIENTS.

      I see the problem.

      He’s says this as though he had no involvement in it getting to this state

      It works perfectly for its intended purpose: extracting value from customers and moving it to shareholders’ pockets.

      Oh, you thought the healthcare system was supposed to take care of people’s health? want to buy my shining new bridge?

    25. myislanduniverse on

      Does that mean he’ll work to craft single payer legislation and pivot the company toward its Medicare division?

      WHY IS THAT, SHITTYWITTY?! COULD IT BE THE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF POLITICAL BRIBES????

      I am in biotech and we had someone who works with these insurance companies describing how they have been slowly purchasing their way down into the pharmacies and now buying physician practices so they can own the patient from the doctor to insurance. Our government just sits on their asses not doing a thing about this.

    32. FanDry5374 on

      So he thinks there is some way to squeeze more money out of customers and the government? Dang.

    33. chicken101 on

      It actually works perfectly…for them. Our healthcare system is designed to make them the most money possible.

    35. Prudent_Baseball2413 on

      Agreed you haven’t figured out how to deny 100% of the claims.

    38. AlveaChan on

      We realize we need to make it sound like we care so people will stop hurting our profits.

    40. Ho_The_Megapode_ on

      I think it’s working exactly as intended, and that is the core problem…

    41. Exact_Research01 on

      Politicians also say the same thing and then do nothing. This means nothing. These companies have suddenly come under fire and are waiting for people to forget everything and return to their lives.
