UnitedHealth Group Inc., the United States’ biggest health insurer, sharply criticized the “Medicare for all” proposals being debated by Democrats — wading into a heated political debate that’s likely to dominate the 2020 presidential race and the conversation about the future of private health plans in America.
On Tuesday, UnitedHealth shares reversed their gains in pre-market trading after the company reported positive earnings. The shares were down 5.1% at $218.51 as of 11:40 a.m. Pacific time. Sanders discussed his plans at Fox News town hall in Bethlehem, Pa., on Monday night. Fox anchor Bret Baier asked the audience at the event to raise their hands if they had private health insurance from an employer.
Wait until there’s no profit from medical care. Who’s going to want to be a doctor? When the money runs out, they will close up shop. Then what? Democrats are ruining this country
Well, of course they would. No dividends for their shareholders otherwise.
Of course they make so much money off of the ridiculous prices they charge
Thoughts and prayers
MedicareForAll
Cause that would be the end of the gravy train for them
Of course they’re weighing in, think abt it, no profit, no money to stuff in their pockets off the backs of ppls health!?!!
Gee, I wonder why.
Medicare for all is a joke...it’s not free people! Most doctors won’t take it and you will not get good medical care. Free is never FREE!
$$$$
As Bernie Sanders said last night on the Fox Town Hall Meeting, his Free Healthcare for all means everyone’s taxes will go up but outside of that healthcare will be FREE!!! That’s Liberal Socialistic Logic for you! What a douche bag! 💯
I'm shocked...*yawn*
I love my plan at work through United. Please keep your hands off my plan Democrats.
I’m not for it either but not sure I’d back an argument from a for profit health provider.
Fwiw. When i had UHC at a job 2 years ago it was the best insurance family plan I ever had in over 35 years of working. Top notch.
Of course, they like me paying $500 deductible for an ultrasound to prove I’m not dying.
'revenue of $226.2 billion.”
.UnitedHealthGrp Boo hoo! You could be part of the solution, United Health, but instead, you'll fight to remain part of an outdated health care system that's dying on the vine. How short sighted of you. BlindedByWhite Dumb people.
Shocking
$226 billion in revenue in 2018 with a projected $240 billion in 2019... UnitedHealth can f*ck all the way off. For profit healthcare is one of THE worst elements of our country.
What a stunning surprise.
Cry me a river...
I wonder why... 🤔
