I like how the United Healthcare CEO is greyed out like a completed boss in Mega Man.
Well shit. Who’s the secret boss after they all get greyed out then?
Capitalism
It’s a double boss fight with Adam Smith and John Locke
We have Marx and Engels

I thought the same joke just need red circles around the rest haha
Reminder, at 20M per year you have to work ten thousand years to earn 200B, which is the realm Musk is in…
Certainly a very valid point, and hopefully we’re building up to that (bigger money comes with much tighter security), but I do think the people so directly sacrificing people’s lives for profit shouldn’t be overlooked.
Yeah, and as I posted somewhere else, 10.2M is only a measly $196.000 a weak… /s
Such a low salary. Bet we all can work all our whole lives and not even get half of 10.2M in total.
Their salary shouldn’t matter as much as their insurance claim denial rates.
For real, Thompson might be the lowest on the list, but United had some of the highest denial rates. And I bet they’re damn proud of the rates too.
FYI this is out of date for CVS. Karen Lynch got fired and replaced by David Joyner a month ago.
Unless she got fired for whistleblowing, I think we can still count her, but it is good to stay up to date, thanks!
I remember she tried to overhaul their drug cost model to be less opaque and supposedly cheaper for consumers. Doesn’t seem like it ended up happening from my point of view. CVS is my PBM and keeps raising the cost for generics to the point where it’s cheaper to buy them without using insurance from an online pharmacy.
But I wouldn’t want the new jerk who replaced her to escape attention, seeing as he came from the PBM business and is likely the reason for my above complaint.
Oh yeah, I completely support getting these people’s names and photos out there.
With a name like that you know she’s got it coming
I keep scanning the news to see if they found out anything about the shooter yet, aka The Adjuster, and they have absolutely nothing whatsoever. It’s like he didn’t really exist.
The Deposer
they are all small compared to the shareholders who likely decide the company policies more than the CEOs
Here’s a twist - YOU are the shareholder. One of them.
well I sure am somehow buying products that probably goes to one of the shareholders’ pockets that is for sure.
No, you are the shareholder because you receive your salary into a bank account which then automatically gets invested (and unless your bank is ripping you off you should be getting a monthly interest) and you have a pension which is also invested. You are an ACTUAL shareholder.
there is no monthly interest in regular accounts here unless you put it in a savers account. but yes I do and I know that my pension usually invests the money too without much flexibility on where to invest it in. so unless you are Ron Swanson there is no complete disconnection from this web. but the fix is easy: all I have to say is “individually major share holder” since those will be the ones deciding about company policies not me.
I think any company whose only shareholders are made up of people holding 0.000001% in shares wont suffer from the same consequences a company does when there are shareholders like %10, 20, 30 etc. Same difference between having billions or hundred thousands.
WHY are they getting paid SO GODDAMN MUCH MONEY??
THIS IS NOT WHY WE GAVE TAX BREAKS
7 more to go
It’s like a mega man boss screen
I hate when people don’t specify monthly or yearly pay, especially with health insurance CEOs where it can be both
I hate when people talk about executive pay without specifying both salary and stock. After all, Elon Musk supposedly earns zero salary and zero cash bonus, but seems to be getting by
not small enough for the bullets to miss

woah that’s so crazy. I’ve got this DIY submarine they should come ride in
I’d donate to that crowd-funding 👍
I’ve got this DIY submarine too, it’s a 55 gallon drum with a bunch of scrap metal tied to the side as ballast. Guaranteed to be a comfortable ride!
I’m not getting in unless it is piloted using an offbrand xbox controller.
And the only destination I’ll accept is the Titanic.
Whaddaya mean it’s a “pile of junk not fit for a river crossing”? Sounds like you don’t appreciate true innovation.
I think it’s more about denied claims. UHC denies more than 30% of claims whereas most other insurers range between 10-20%. UHC denies the most claims by a big margin. This is likely to make you some enemies.
UHC denies more than 30% of claims
Universal healthcare denies claims? What?
…
…
Core dumped
United Healthcare.
10-20 percent is still insanely high, considering the amount of cases were taking about here. Even just one percent would be thousands suffering for no better reason than profits.
I think we need to accept that there are some fraudulent claims filed that should be denied. I have no idea what the percentage is or how to determine it, but I would think it is below 10%, probably below 5%.
Man, think about how much better the world would be if insurance companies were automatically audited with greater than 5% denials.
What a fantastic idea. You should run for office.
Better to accept a few fraudulent claims than deny a legitimate one IMO, but then again I’m not CEO material (I care about people)
I see zero reason for it to not be both. These people are all your enemy, as is everyone above them in the chain.
This photo is notably missing Andrew Witty the CEO of UnitedHealth Group the parent company of UnitedHealthcare of which Brian Thompson was CEO. Andrew Witty made $23.5m last year.
I bet that guy is finding sleep elusive.
I wonder how many UHC members have found sleep difficult while nauseated, in pain, and dying because of care they were denied by UHC.
He probably has 10-15 federal Marshalls outside his bedroom as we speak, pulling guard duty.
On our dime.
For sure, but I’d like to believe there is a fresh new fear in their minds. Kinda like what if the doc finds something serious and I go bankrupt from the treatment.
I hope his request for sleeping pills gets denied by his insurance.
