Medicare Advantage continues to be one of the most profitable sectors of the health insurance industry, yet a lobby group backed by the nation's largest payers has claimed the federal government isn't paying them enough. Fulcrum Strategies President and CEO Ron Howirgon and Matthew Handley discuss this.
Plus, Elevance-owned Anthem BlueCross BlueShield in New Hampshire has royally screwed up their mail-order pharmacy benefits for NH's retired employees.
Matthew and Ron also discuss why UnitedHealthcare and UNC Health are possibly going to go non-par on April 1.
