    Okay, no. Anthem were looking to implement this in Connecticut, New York and Missouri, with Colorado and other states being brought into this policy later on.

    Anthem has only backed off this policy in Connecticut. The other states are still currently on the table.

        Only one way to see if that’s the reason…

          Yeah, a N of 1 isn’t a valid experiment.

            We need to see if the results are repeatable and verifiable.

    For like 5 seconds, then they’ll try again. Just like Microsoft’s windows 11 spyware.

    Interesting. Kind of sounds like they are helping incentivize targeting health insurance execs. Clearly the execs there are actually afraid and are responding to that. They are basically saying they will only change things for the better when their lives are at risk. Not sure that was the message they wanted out there but that’s how it came out.

      I think, at this point, anything the health insurance companies do that actually looks good, will make us jump to that conclusion.

    Don’t trust anything they say. The writing is on the wall with these big corporations, and a lot of them have forgotten where the money comes from.

    Eh, they took their shot; missed their mark. I’m sure they’ll keep trying though. Only a matter of time. They’ve got all the time in the world. Their “customers”, not so much.
