The largest U.S. health insurance companies aren’t just insurers anymore.
They own hospitals, employ doctors, run clinics, operate pharmacies, and control pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) that decide which drugs you can get and how much you pay.
In one revealing moment at a Senate hearing, executives were asked to raise their hands if their company:
- Owns/controls a health insurance division
- Employs providers or owns clinics/specialty pharmacies
- Owns/controls a PBM
- Has a legal duty to maximize shareholder value
Almost every major hand stayed up.
They diagnose, treat, dispense drugs, set prices, and decide coverage—all while legally obligated to prioritize profits over patients.
One entity now controls almost every step of your healthcare journey.
That’s not competition. That’s consolidation.

😦.. I really don't know how anyone can live under an obvious one way system like that, it seems heads they win & tails they win, you lose always. At least here in England I've never had to pay for any medical 'insurance', never had 'pet insurance either' (vets just see ££$$ signs first if your pets is insured)😒. I've only seen a doctor once in about 10yrs (which turned out to need nothing doing anyway). So I feel for all you guys having been put though such a totally Unhelpful, Unhealthy and blood sucking way of life.🙏

People keep saying to stay OUT of the doctors' offices and you will stay healthier. I am beginning to see that the more you go, the more blood work they want, the more blood work the more they find you need to take this or that pill. The more you take the pills the sicker you feel and are right back in the office again. I am to the point that unless I feel like I am dying I am curtailing any more office "wellness" visits. They only make me angry because they want you off of every food you eat because - for one short moment in a year's span of time - a blood test - after hours' of fasting - that certain "particular" elements of the blood seem to be TOO HIGH and of course we need to bring it down.
