DOJ slaps health insurers with kickback charges. CVS, Aetna, Elevance, Humana implicated

People need to go to jail

“The Department of Justice has just filed a complaint accusing 3 of the largest health insurers of paying illegal kickbacks to major insurance brokers”

“The DOJ accusing CVS, Aetna, Elevance Health, and Humana of paying kickbacks to brokers”

“The Justice Department said that rather than acting in an unbiased manner and in the best interest of patients, the brokers directed Medicare beneficiaries to plans offered by insurers that paid them the most in kickbacks.”

“It’s a statistical fact that there’s half a trillion dollars of waste that occurs in the United States every year. A lot of that can be bucketed in the category that you highlighted, denied claims. 450 million claims get denied every year”
