Reports it took over $6 Billion in profit out of healthcare for Wall Street in Q3 2024 release. Trump’s Project 2025 would DOUBLE UnitedHealth’s privatized Medicare revenue and profit.
Due to Trump’s Project 2025 implementation
- The number of people denied care by UnitedHealthcare’s Medicare Advantage plans would jump to 5.2 million people annually.
- UnitedHealthcare would likely take in $274 billion annually from privatized Medicare alone.
- UnitedHealth Group, the parent company of UnitedHealthcare, would likely gain more revenue and profit due to Project 2025 implementation than any other health corporation.
Summary: UnitedHealth would be one of the largest financial beneficiaries of Project 2025, since it is the largest private health insurance corporation in America, the 4th largest company in the country, and the largest writer of privatized Medicare Advantage plans, with 7.8 million people insured through a UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage plan. Because of UnitedHealth’s massive scale, the harm it causes through its denials of care is unprecedented – whether through prior authorization denials, claim denials, and inadequate networks that prevent beneficiaries from receiving care or increase the financial strain of receiving care. UnitedHealth would be empowered by Trump’s Project 2025 to harm more Americans than virtually any other private corporation, other than fossil fuel companies, that benefits from his plan.
Trump’s Project 2025 lays the groundwork for the eventual complete privatization of Medicare: it plans to “Make Medicare Advantage the default enrollment option,” despite the fact that privatized Medicare costs the public more than traditional public Medicare.
Under this plan, people who are sick or injured will stay sick longer, even dying while UnitedHealthcare and other privatized Medicare plans delay or deny their treatment. Millions more people who get the treatment they need will be wrongly stuck with bills that force them to choose between rent or medicine and debt collectors.

Only the prince of idiots would link themselves with United Health.
Obama...the prince of idiots.
Lawyers from United Health were the ones who wrote Obamacare.
SEIU then unionized United Health.

I suspect they are behind the mysterious demise of the CEO and the financial problems of UnitedHeath. That activist organization saw United Health as a threat, or at least distributed propaganda suggesting the whole mess. To me it’s a possible smoking gun.

Agreed.
Reminder, United Health is heavily promoted by and joined at the hip with AARP -- about as hard left an organization as it gets.

Gee, I wonder if this is a left-wing commie source.

I went to their website. It looks like straight up old time Soviet/Nazi/Maoist propaganda. It is aiming for the so called downtrodden, uninformed moron, which unfortunately is about one third of the US.

Dear Snarky,
No. I assumed discerning readers would note the obvious content clash and look for the possible connection between the death of CEO of United Health and the financial happenings therein. But, you have nothing better to do, so here we are.

UHC is a huge participant in Obamacare. Obama enabled the current model of health insurance. More co-pays, less coverage, higher deductibles, smaller networks.

Yes - it’s a left wing commie source which I think is a smoking gun for what happened to UHC CEO and the company’s financial problems. I didn’t add a barf alert and don’t know the syntax for a proper commie alert.

THIS! is Peoples Action......
All they want to do is stir up more shit. It never was “Trump’s Project 2025.” It’s just a trigger phrase for leftists.
File this under trash.

This seems very likely. What we can see of the assassin made me think “antifa”, and People’s Action Institute sounds like something on that spectrum.

United Healthcare was behind the nationalization and destruction of the medical profession. Abuse enough citizens as an untouchable stem of government then expect to pay a price at the hands of citizens. Americans are tired of government abuse and the people benefiting from the brutal marxist regime are starting to pay for it.

Who are these peoplesaction dickheads? Never heard of them. These aren’t the old “aunt teefus” morons are they? I guess they could be communists or Muzzie terrorists. I’m sure they are also big N5 losers though.

BINGO! “- it’s a left wing commie source which I think is a smoking gun for what happened to UHC CEO and the company’s financial problems. I didn’t add a barf alert and don’t know the syntax for a proper commie alert.”
