Murderers. They all belong on trial not Luigi.

  They are working the pre-trial now. Of course the trial will happen. Enough conspiracy bullshit.
One term that UnitedHealth executives obsessed over was “admits per thousand” – APK for short. It was a measure of the rate that nursing homes sent their residents to the hospital. Under the “Premium Dividend” program, a low APK qualified a nursing home for the various bonus payments the insurer offered. A high APK meant that a nursing home received nothing
This is just so un ethical playing games with people's health and lives.
Private healthcare is a failure. These companies priorities profits over public health.
