31 mill is base. What about dividends paid? Most of that 7 bill. would have gone to patient care in non-profit.
No ins cos. are not non-profit.
You must be a business person. Health care does not belong in business model.
Are you sure you’re on the right forum with talk like :
I must be a business person or healthcare does not belong in a business model
That sounds more like Mother Jones than Jim Robinson
Problem with healthcare is everyone now deserves the Mayo Clinic and nobody wants realistic office visit and treatment and meds deductibles and copays and non payers get same insurance as you or I do..I assume you are a positive contributor
As for Hemsleys pay....that’s his name....his net worth rises when UHC stock does....he is one of their largest individual stockholders and has stock options that trigger at certain prices like ANY CEO of a public company would
You sound like someone bitter about their rising healthcare cost and uninformed about what happened
I have a family of 7
My blue cross silver level policy without dental was 350 a month at the time of Obama care
I’m self employed and participate in a Tenn Farm Bureau group policy...no I’m not a farmer but I have 10 acres...you pay a membership fee
Now what six years into as yet unrepealed Obama care
My once blue cross policy 350/month is nearly 1000 now and with UHC
Farm Bureau dropped Blue Cross because it was even higher
Almost tripled premium precisely after Obama care due to requirements etc
My policy had been 275-350 for at last ten years before
I am paying for folks who don’t pay
That is what Obama care is
Folks who have money and good health young people are footing the bill for the five dollar copay crowd
It ain’t complicated
That insurance companies are profiting from it is not the why of the problem but rather a consequence of the problem
That was free btw
