Optum

You know, it really does.

And because we have an independent plan administrator paying the claims instead of, like, Blue Cross, and we have an independent PBM instead of freaking CVS Caremark or Optum or whatever, all those misaligned incentives in those giant corporate borgs that are eating our economy... and stealing the American dream from the middle class, those misaligned incentives get realigned.

Because what are the priorities of you and your employer? They're the same.

You wanna be healthy, they want you to be healthy.

As you know, in free markets, that's what happens when there's no competition.

And the regulatory environment has driven private equity to buy up in health care, has driven the largest employers now are Optum, United, Aetna, et cetera, of doctors.

And small practices are being decimated, as has patient choice and quality of care.

Yeah.

So that's the most confusing part for some seniors.

In my area, we have a big medical group called Optum.

And many of these, they tell me, I have Optum, but that's not changing.

So what's changing is their plan with their health insurance company, whether that could be Aetna, United, Anthem Blue Cross, Humana, Blue Shield.

All these are insurance companies that offer Medicare Advantage plans.
