      It’s basically talking about how UHC defrauds Medicare and Medicaid by incentivizing doctors to over diagnose patients.

        that’s kind of counter-intuitive. by over-diagnosing patients, depending on the condition, the health plan is left to foot the bill of medication over $2000 in 2025 due to the Inflation Reduction Act. They’ve really been struggling with expensive specialty drugs because of medicare and medicaid laws that pass the cost over a certain amount to the health plan. Of course they could push diagnoses that don’t require expensive medication.
