I work in auto insurance. I’m on my way to go tell our president we should kick our top 10k policyholders who have never filed a claim off. He’s going to be so glad I thought of it.

Pretty amazing that even the evil health insurers are united to demand that they pay for policyholders’ essential medical care
Regardless of the disgraceful nonsense we will likely hear from this administration in the coming days on vaccine “recommendations,” Americas healthcare insurers issued a joint statement tonight saying coverage for Covid and flu shots will remain unchanged from prior years.
Speaks for itself.

No biggie, it just means Florida slaps their Bizarro Quasi-Socialism button again:

* 10% retroactive surcharge on all policyholders statewide
(I'm not making this up; this is, incredibly, how it actually works.)

An important point here: the real problem for EPS is the high medical cost ratio. And that number doesn’t include anything related to UHC employee compensation. It’s entirely about what they charge in premiums relative to what health care their policyholders consume.
Wow the salaries they pay must he bonkers.

So much of what I have read frames this as “citizens denied healthcare” when a very important part is “Policyholders DEFRAUDED”
Healthcare is being denied when it HAS been paid for. Illegally denied.

Broke: insurers ensure solvency by only having policyholders who file claims - the more claims, the more desirable the policyholder.

This undersells what insurance exchange policyholders will feel if Congress doesn't act. The 18 percent increase is on the raw cost of insurance. But many will also lose enhanced subsidies that expire at the end of December. Those people will feel an average increase of *more than 75%.*

Regular people are left to pick up the pieces and pay the settlements.
