The largest health insurance group in the nation, it’s CEO stepped out of his hotel in the morning and was shot dead by a man who supposedly may have “laid in wait” all night.

United healthcare has an estimated value of 562 BILLION dollars.

Of course it happened in NYC, the home of fair trials, low crime rates and an unbiased legal system…sarcasm.

It is going to be interesting to find out the motive for this shooting.

Denied healthcare for a loved one? That is a possibility. Or, it could be a personal issue.

Brian Thompson didn’t shoot himself.
The cameras weren’t working.
The guards were asleep.
The list of clients will not be made public.

“The sources said the shooting was not a random incident.”

somebody’s loved one died because UnitedHealthCare denied a medical procedure or medicine necessary to save their lives, and said, “F-it, i’ve got nothing to lose now, and a perfect revenge would also be a wakeup call to those who setup, condone, and profit by such a corrupt medical system that killed my loved one.”

Sounds like an assasination.

If it was a hired hit, the shooter is most likely unalived already. If it was an angry patient or client the police will eventually find them but they will most likely go down swinging. IMHO

Apparently he was arriving at the Hilton to attend a meeting when a masked gunman assassinated him. Sounds like an inside job arranged by someone who knew his schedule. There are many surveillance cameras in that area of Manhattan. Few felonies are solved these days in NYC. Perhaps there are still a few veteran NYPD detectives still on the job who may solve this high profile case. Also sounds like a Law and Order plot. Suspect there is much more to this story.

Is there an accurate account of the number of illegals they had to push out of the way to get this guy into the ER?

The bullet removal has been deemed not medically necessary. Claim denied.

Guy was masked in the cold, waited 10 minutes, shot him several times with a silencer on his pistol, ran down and alley, jumped on a bike and vanished in the area of Central Park.

Someone had a plan.

I have it on good authority that massive layoffs will be taking place at United Healthcare by the end of the month. The jobs are moving to India.

Another happy Medicare Advantage customer, I suspect.

Please hold responses “I get free yoga with my plan”, obviously insurance for the healthy 65-75 group that pays out little and rakes in billions from FedGov was SOMEBODY’S idea of how to make a killing.

Medicare, as such, contained lots of contradictions which have now grown so large as to be close to toppling the whole system.

UnitedHealth does have some great wellness programs, in their defense. More people walking several thousand steps a day for up to 1,000 a year in an HSA and you would have many few lifestyle related diseases.
