Top insurer warns that Obamacare enrollment mix worse than expected [Humana, Medicare Advantage] "...............In the same filing, Humana said cuts to Medicare Advantage payments to private insurers made by the health care law would be steeper than expected, triggering changes to benefits.

"The Company expects to continue its standard process of seeking alternatives to minimize the disruption to Medicare beneficiaries this level of rate decline may cause," the filing read. "Such alternatives include clinical management programs, operating cost efficiencies, benefit changes, market exits and other operating strategies. In the interim, the Company also expects to continue its efforts to educate CMS, the Administration and Congress on the adverse impact such rate pressures have upon Medicare beneficiaries."

First they came for the old and infirm, and I said nothing, because I was not old or unwell.

That’s how it starts.

Finally, they came for me, and I said nothing, because there was no one left to hear.

That’s how it ends.
