UnitedHealth CEO warns Sanders', AOC's 'Medicare for All' plans would 'destabilize' US health system
UnitedHealth Group CEO David Wichmann warned investors on Tuesday that"Medicare for All" proposals pushed by Democratic lawmakers and presidential candidates would"destabilize the nation's health system."
"And the inherent cost burden would surely have a severe impact on the economy and jobs – all without fundamentally increasing access to care," he added. Despite concerns from UnitedHealth, public support for a single-payer system has grown. According to a survey from the Kaiser Family Foundation last month, 56% of the people surveyed support a national health plan in which all Americans would get insurance from a single government plan, versus 39% who said they oppose it.
