BREAKING: Aetna declares it will exit all Obamacare exchanges

May 15, 2017 -

“At this time have completely exited the exchanges,” Aetna said in a statement released May 10.

Though Aetna was initially one of the biggest players in the Obamacare exchanges, this announcement comes as no surprise.

At the end of 2016, Aetna announced that it would cut its participation in the exchanges by 70 percent, reducing the number of states it would sell individual Affordable Care Act plans in from 15 to just four. That decision ...

Obamacare collapse continues as major insurer Aetna dumps ALL exchanges, leaving millions without options

May 11, 2017 -

One of the biggest lies of all used by former President Obama and the Democratic Party is that the Affordable Care Act would provide a myriad of choices of insurance coverage, an alleged aspect of the plan that would lead to more competition and lower prices.

The exact opposite has happened, in fact, as prices for monthly premiums and out-of-pocket deductibles have literally become unaffordable for many.

And now, as major insurer Aetna announces it will become ...

AETNA accidentally exposes HIV testing status on the OUTSIDE of thousands of envelopes mailed to patients

August 31, 2017 -

The letters, which were sent out on July 28, originally meant to inform members of a change in pharmacy benefits. However, the texts seen through a small window on the envelop showed the patients' names and suggestions about changes in filling up prescriptions.

"People have been devastated. We’ve had a number of people tell us they had chosen not to disclose their HIV status to family members — but this is how their family members found out. People with any private health ...

Is CVS about to turn over millions of vaccine records to Bill Gates? Microsoft partnership raises HUGE questions and medical privacy and corporate exploitation of vaccine mandates

December 12, 2021 -

According to reports, Microsoft Azure will help CVS "enhance its omnichannel pharmacy capabilities and deliver customized, omnichannel health recommendations," which is likely only possible if patients' medical histories are laid bare for Microsoft, and possibly Gates, to view and analyze.

Using advanced machine learning (ML) technology models run on Microsoft's cloud computing service, CVS will be able to leverage the results to automate more healthcare-related tasks, ...

Trouble for Big Pharma? CVS to close 46 stores due to “underperformance”

May 09, 2019 -

The type of brick and mortar store that USA Today says it "thought would never disappear," CVS is apparently having trouble maintaining a sustainable business model, and is thus making some major changes – changes that are costing the company roughly $135 million as part of what it's dubbed a "store rationalization charge."

Though the shutdowns only affect about one percent of CVS' roughly 9,600 stores nationwide, some suspect that this is a canary in the coalmine type of ...

Obamacare in “death spiral” as entire system unravels

February 20, 2017 -

Now, Aetna Inc. Chief Executive Officer Mark Bertolini is criticizing the Affordable Care Act once again, this time warning that the healthcare law is teetering on the brink of collapse. “It is in a death spiral,” Bertolini said in a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal. “My anticipation is that by 2018 we’ll see a lot of markets without any coverage at all.” The Aetna CEO explained that, “there isn’t enough money in the ACA as its structured, even ...

Federal judge orders CVS to pay nearly $290 million for defrauding Medicare

August 21, 2025 -

For years, Big Pharma and its pharmacy middlemen have been operating like criminal enterprises, engaging in price-fixing, defrauding taxpayers, and manipulating drug costs while patients suffer. Now, a federal judge has confirmed that CVS Caremark, one of the largest pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) in America, systematically lied to Medicare, overcharging the program by nearly $100 million. And this week, they were finally held accountable.

Con: ObamaCare was designed to fail ON PURPOSE to usher in ‘single payer’ system

October 11, 2016 -

Considering that the expected enrollment amounts far exceed that actual turnout for enrollment, ObamaCare, or The Affordable Healthcare act, the “affordable” aspect comes into question, particularly when the system needs actual people registered in order for it to work in the first place. Because of this, insurers are pushing for rate hikes as high as 60% nationwide.

Boycott these 60 companies that donate money to fund the systematic murder of unborn human babies

January 28, 2019 -

As the biggest single provider of abortions in America, Planned Parenthood performs more than 300,000 abortions each year, and their political arm works tirelessly to influence elections and implement liberal policies around the country. Undercover videos that came to light in recent years showed top execs from the group wining and dining agents who posed as buyers of baby body parts and cutting deals with them.

More than 25 percent of the $1.3 billion in revenue Planned ...

Billions of CVS patient records exposed due to “cloud storage misconfiguration”

June 22, 2021 -

Once again highlighting the serious risks involved with electronic medical records, a vendor of CVS Health apparently uploaded the records into the system without creating any type of password or authentication firewall, effectively exposing them all to the world.

Researchers say that the data points can easily be strung together to create an "extremely personal snapshot of someone's medical situation. CVS Health is now on the hook for this massive breach of private medical ...

These Big Pharma and health care companies are funding the mass murder of black babies in America… learn the truth

December 26, 2018 -

As we reported last year, Planned Parenthood has played a pivotal role over at least the past century in the systematic extermination of black people through legalized abortion. As you may already know, Planned Parenthood has long perpetuated genocide against people with dark skin by calling its nefarious eugenics agenda "family planning," luring black people into getting abortions in the name of "reproductive rights."

With the spotlight now rightfully on the Women's ...

DRUG CARTEL: The Big Pharma equivalent of the MOB runs America’s health care, which is why drug prices continue to skyrocket

October 11, 2023 -

The federal government makes all the rules, after all, including who "wins" and who "loses." As usual, ordinary Americans are losing in the form of sky-high prices coupled with rock-bottom "care." And the one percenters at the top are raking in all the profits.

The so-called Affordable Care Act (ACA) was Barack Hussein Obama's "solution" to the problem of the health insurance industry's greed-over-care model of doing business. All these years later, though, Obamacare, ...

New Medicaid health care plan prescribes healing foods as medicine

June 30, 2018 -

It's easy to blame the healthcare system in America, and there are a lot of things wrong with it. Finally, however, it looks like some plans are actually heading down the right path in this regard. Instead of lining Big Pharma's pockets and giving people drugs that will only make them need even more drugs, some health care plans have started offering people healing foods instead of ineffective, toxic pills.

Kaiser Health News reports that Health Partners, in conjunction ...

Here are MANY broken Obamacare promises to help explain why Trump and the GOP need to repeal this disaster

February 18, 2017 -

Naturally, the discredited Washington establishment media have seized upon these staged protests to compare them to similar protests of Democratic lawmakers pushing for Obamacare during President Obama’s first year in office, even going so far as to label them the liberal version of the Tea Party movement.

Turnabout in politics is, of course, fair play. It just seems odd that now some Republicans, like Rep. Jason Chaffetz of Utah – who won in November by more than 50 ...

Trump team shaping up to include strong anti-trust leaders who may challenge monopolies like Google, Facebook and Amazon

December 06, 2016 -

In recent days, Trump named a Republican antitrust veteran to his transition team for the Justice Department, a selection that lawyers believe may signal a more hands-off approach to anti-trust enforcement compared to President Barack Obama.

The selection – David Higbee – is a partner at the law firm Hunton & Williams LLP. He worked in the administration of President George W. Bush from 2001 to 2005, having spent his last year in Justice’s Antitrust Division. Since ...
