CVS lays off 400+ at Aetna headquarters

[maitemia]

what don't you understand?
CVS overpaid for Aetna
It's the same when an insurance agent buys a book of business and loses most of the clients-not a good biz deal
Humana- I was first appointed with them in 12/2004-were you selling then?
They were flying high, had majority market share.
They tried to sell themselves multiple times
They got off the ACA in my state after one year
Then they exited group insurance
It's Humana, not the government
And if MAPD carriers are suffering? Due to their massive profits declining

Spot on. I've been in the MA niche for over 20 years: THIS is not politics - I saw this coming more than 5 years ago; it has been building up.

The point I'm making is, the new rules and laws are clearly hurting all the companies. If you don't understand that, then you're utterly blind. That's the point I'm making. That's objective reality, not my opinion. It's not JUST Aetna.....it's many of them. Granted, not all as bad as Aetna, but either you don't follow what's going on in the MA-sphere, or you're just playing dumb. If it wasn't for all the new rules and laws, then Aetna would definitely still be profitable on MA. There's absolutely zero denying that the government is costing these companies a sh*t-ton more money. Again, that's not even up for a debate. That's an objective fact. Understand now?
