Surely this is just a coincidence.

UnitedHealth's first-quarter profit soared 35 percent as the nation's biggest health insurer slashed participation in Affordable Care Act exchanges but grew just about every other part of its business
quote:
Enrollment in Medicare Advantage plans and the state- and federally funded Medicaid coverage both swelled for UnitedHealth, which also continued to grow an Optum segment that sells several services outside the company's core health insurance.
Operating earnings from that insurance businesses climbed 15 percent to $2.1 billion, even though UnitedHealth's individual enrollment plunged as it withdrew from nearly all the Affordable Care Act's health insurance exchanges. The insurer pulls in most of its enrollment from group insurance coverage offered through employers.
Surely this is just a coincidence.

I said this a few months ago and got told I was an idiot, but I'm convinced that whoever helped write Obama care from the major insurers miscalculated the costs of providing the Obamacare plans. They're expensive to provide and there just were never the amount of healthy people needed to make it work.

Hopefully all insurance companies pull out of ACA.

BamaSJW will arrive shortly to post outdated and flawed graphs showing the wonders of Obamacare and will berate you for thinking that premiums have increased as well.

Because those frickwads deny everything and don't pay for anything much more than a routine general family doctor office visit.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing insurance companies gain more profit.
