😬 Yikes. Not a good look. Maybe if you’re piling up that many cases, you should do something different? Like investing in patient care instead of whatever illegal plan you have to make money? 🤔
Corporations like UnitedHealth Group will always put their profits over people. Our elected leaders must hold them accountable. Sign this petition demanding action! actionnetwork.org/petitions/tell…
Denied health insurance claims are health insurance company profits. Cigna reported $5.2B in profits last year. Your healthcare decisions should be between you and your doctor, not you and someone from the finance department. Pass Medicare for All propublica.org/article/cigna-…
“Deny, deny, deny. That’s how you hit your numbers" propublica.org/article/cigna-…
It’s time for UnitedHealth Group’s CEO Andrew Witty to face the music & tell us why he’s pocketing billions while UnitedHealth Group denies countless people the care they need. (Hint: it’s nothing but greed.) It’s time UHC is held accountable for putting profits over people.
This Care Worker Recognition Month and every month, we want caregivers to know that you make the world go round, we will always have your back, and we will fight relentlessly until you get the wages and benefits you deserve. #TheCareEconomy #CareCantWait
My United Healthcare Medicare (Dis)Advantage premium went up and I still have to fight for the treatments I need to live! That ain't right!

United Healthcare made obscene profits in 2023, just like they do every year. What did they do with that money? Raise copays for us & give their already-wealthy shareholders more than $14 billion. #UnitedHealthDeniesCare
No one working full-time providing life-saving care should be living in poverty. No one. It’s time to care for those who care for us! #TheCareEconomy #CareCantWait
Do you know a caregiver or have you ever had one? This Care Worker Recognition Month, join us in showing support for caregivers by sharing what the caregiver in your life has meant to you! actionnetwork.org/forms/202404-t…
Our caregivers are overlooked, especially the 50 million unpaid family caregivers who provide necessary care for their loved ones. Even if you’re taking care of someone you love, you should still be compensated for your time and labor. #TheCareEconomy
In recognition of the need to do better for caregivers and those who rely on them, @BarriosIzamar traveled to D.C. to support the fight for care. Watch this video, then join us in the fight for care for all!
Beautiful tribute to Ady Barkan's caregivers

THIS is the true cost of care. Every day, family caregivers like Ty Lewis provide $600 billion of unpaid care. We deserve a system that caregivers can rely on. Caregiving should be a choice, not a last resort.

April is Care Workers Recognition Month. In honor of this month, watch this video featuring one of Ady’s caregivers, @BarriosIzamar. Then, commit to the fight with care with Team Be A Hero. #TheCareEconomy
April is Care Worker Recognition Month! Let’s do more than recognize our caregivers—let’s show our love and appreciation. Join us in thanking a caregiver or caregivers! We want to know what they meant to you! ⬇️ actionnetwork.org/forms/202404-t…
Many of us rely on our caregivers to remain at home in our communities. For Carla R., a member of the Be A Hero community, this is precisely the case. Caregivers are a blessing that should not be reserved for the wealthy few. #TheCareEconomy #CareCantWait
Health insurance "mistakes" are health insurance industry profits. Health insurance is not healthcare. Pass universal healthcare with Medicare for All. wendellpotter.substack.com/p/health-insur…

“Deny, deny, deny. That’s how you hit your numbers,” said former Cigna medical director Dr. Debby Day about the pressure put on her to rapidly review patients’ cases. My latest on health insurance denials with @PatrickMRucker propublica.org/article/cigna-…
Cigna built a computer program that allowed its medical directors to deny certain claims in bulk. Now a physician director talks about the pressure to deny claims for the insurance giant, or else get fired. propublica.org/article/cigna-…
"Cigna built a computer program that allowed its medical directors to deny certain claims in bulk. The insurer’s doctors spent an average of just 1.2 seconds on each of those cases." propublica.org/article/cigna-…
propublica.org/article/cigna-… This is a very disturbing article that raises many concerns. It describes Dr. Debby Day, a long time Medical Director at Cigna and her experience and her reasons for retiring from Cigna. Some of the concerns raised include: 1. The article describes…
Denied health insurance claims are health insurance company profits. Cigna reported $5.2B in profits last year. Your healthcare decisions should be between you and your doctor, not you and someone from the finance department. Pass Medicare for All propublica.org/article/cigna-…
New: Cigna tracks every minute that its staff doctors spend deciding whether to pay for health care. Dr. Debby Day said her bosses cared more about being fast than being right: “Deny, deny, deny. That's how you hit your numbers,” Day said. propub.li/3xTfCz8
This is how companies that sell Medicare Advantage plans make a profit. Don’t ever buy a Medicare Advantage plan.

@IR_Doctor @AaronGoodman33 @btfoundation I think Medicare Advantage plans, which can devolve into M4A, either directly or through employment based insurance - and those lines already blurred with MA-forced retiree plans, is the worst experiment ever. But same concept, management by insurance companies cannot be allowed.
@clairejyaxley @DoomScroling We don’t in many cases. Medical bills are the leading cause of bankruptcy in the US, a figure that persists above 60% That figure includes people with so called “good insurance.” Medicare Advantage is the system intended to privatize Medicare, so the ripoff continues to death.
In other words, independent pharmacies subsidize profits for the big 3 PBMs Hate to say this, but the Medicare Advantage program seniors pick may be putting your local Indy pharmacy out of business. Next renewal, ask how much they pay pharmacies. And pharmacists need to help…
This is how CVS Caremark and GoodRx are robbing patients and pharmacies. Patient copay: $45.83 Drug cost: $23.86 CVS/GoodRx Fee: $38.50 Profit: (-$16.03) That's right, the PBM and GoodRx are charging the patient 192% of drug cost while charging the pharmacy 162% of the drug…
My United Healthcare Medicare (Dis)Advantage premium went up and I still have to fight for the treatments I need to live! That ain't right!
United Healthcare made obscene profits in 2023, just like they do every year. What did they do with that money? Raise copays for us & give their already-wealthy shareholders more than $14 billion. #UnitedHealthDeniesCare
