They are dedicated to making sure you feel at ease during the laser treatment for varicose veins, using their expertise in anesthesia to keep you pain-free and relaxed.

It is done in a way that reduces any discomfort and lowers the chance of marks on your skin. Our expert healthcare team handles this part very gently and precisely. They are trained to do this in a way that is as gentle as possible, ensuring you feel as comfortable as can be during the laser treatment for varicose veins procedure – Insertion Laser Fiber.

Step 4: Laser Energy Application

After putting the thin fiber in place, a special kind of strong light called laser energy is sent through it. This light warms up the walls of the vein, making it close and seal on its own.

UnitedHealth: AI In the Way

UnitedHealth, the largest health insurance company in the US, is facing serious allegations over AI in their decision-making process. A lawsuit filed in the US District Court in Minnesota claims that use of a flawed AI algorithm that allegedly overrides doctors’ judgments has led to patients being prematurely removed from rehabilitation programs, forcing them to deplete their life savings for…

[manicalesc]

Hitler had a family too.

The sympathization over killer-turning-victim, and what we learned from the recent CEO’s shooting in NYC.

Brian Thompson’s two teenage sons and widow are the latest addition to the grieving sea of people surrounding his name, but ironically the only ones who joined it after his death.

Thanks to his fruitful career path of being a healthcare bouncer, thousands of sick people’s coverage claims got denied, resulting in the deaths of at least 2 people.

His major in-office accomplishment is arguably the AI algorithm used to simplify the approval or denial process of insurance claims. More specifically, “the investigation, cited by the lawsuit, found UnitedHealth pressured medical employees to follow an algorithm, which predicts a patient’s length of stay, to issue payment denials to people with Medicare Advantage plans. Internal documents revealed that managers within the company set a goal for clinical employees to keep patients rehab stays within 1% of the days projected by the algorithm.”

The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court of Minnesota, accuses UnitedHealth and its subsidiary, NaviHealth, of using the computer algorithm to “systematically deny claims” of Medicare beneficiaries struggling to recover from debilitating illnesses in nursing homes.

The reality of the matter is that although the shooter, Luigi Mangione, assumed the role of the judge and executioner, Brian Thompson was appointed to play the role of God. And only one of those situations is illegal.

It’s frankly really enticing to add that only one of these situations is morally reprehensible, but this is not true.

“Vigilante justice is fault proof” is not a hill most of us want to die on. Personal acts of violence can never equate to the judicial system, nor do they claim to most of the time. What they have in common, however, is the perpetrator’s objective goal for his initiative to incite a change for the better.

The proposed takeaway from this is the symbolic perception of Mangione’s act, as a telltale of greed, class war and injustice.

Immediately upon news were released, a hope for the class movement was born while a shiver run down the 1%’s spine.

The poor did not rejoice that a man is dead, though they most certainly cheered at the symbolized slaughter of Healthcare Inc.

The opportunity for this incident to awake class consciousness among the lower ranks must not be stifled by the mourning of human life.

Just because monsters die like humans doesn’t mean we have to mourn them.

You've doubtless seen the outpourings of sarcastic graveyard humor about Thompson's murder. People hate Unitedhealthcare, for good reason, because he personally decided – or approved – countless policies that killed people by cheating them until they died. Nurses and doctors hate Thompson and United. United kills people, for money. During the most acute phase of the pandemic, the company charged the US government $11,000 for each $8 covid test: https://pluralistic.net/2020/09/06/137300-pct-markup/#137300-pct-markup UHC leads the nation in claims denials, with a denial rate of 32% (!!). If you want to understand how the US can spend 20% of its GDP and get the worst health outcomes in the world, just connect the dots between those two facts: the largest health insurer in human history charges the government a 183,300% markup on covid tests and also denies a third of its claims. UHC is a vertically integrated, murdering health profiteer. They bought Optum, the largest pharmacy benefit manager ("A spreadsheet with political power" -Matt Stoller) in the country. Then they starved Optum of IT investment in order to give more money to their shareholders. Then Optum was hacked by ransomware gang and no one could get their prescriptions for weeks. This killed people: https://www.economicliberties.us/press-release/malicious-threat-actor-accesses-unitedhealth-groups-monopolistic-data-exchange-harming-patients-and-pharmacists/# The irony is, Optum is terrible even when it's not hacked. The purpose of Optum is to make you pay more for pharmaceuticals. If that's more than you can afford, you die. Optum – that is, UHC – kills people: https://pluralistic.net/2024/09/23/shield-of-boringness/#some-men-rob-you-with-a-fountain-pen Optum isn't the only murderous UHC division. Take Navihealth, an algorithm that United uses to kick people out of their hospital beds even if they're so frail, sick or injured they can't stand or walk. Doctors and nurses routinely watch their gravely ill patients get thrown out of their hospitals. Many die. UHC kills them, for money: https://prospect.org/health/2024-08-16-steward-bankruptcy-physicians-private-equity/ The patients murdered by Navihealth are on Medicare Advantage. Medicare is the public health care system the USA extends to old people. Medicare Advantage is a privatized system you can swap your Medicare coverage for, and UHC leads the country in Medicare Advantage, blitzing seniors with deceptive ads that trick them into signing up for UHC Medicare Advantage. Seniors who do this lose access to their doctors and specialists, have to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for their medication, and get hit with $400 surprise bills to use the "free" ambulance service: https://prospect.org/health/2024-12-05-manhattan-medicare-murder-mystery/

Pluralistic: Predicting the present (09 Dec 2024) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow

[ifiwereafish]

holy fuck

if you/someone you know use UHC, makes sure whoever pays for your/their healthcare - you/them, a spouse, family, whatever - knows about this because to quote a content creator i follow called liv pearsall, "what in, and i do not say this lightly, fresh hell"

also, if you're like me (in my case it's autism but it could be something else for you) and struggle with understand big, fancy words (like the article) i ran the article through this informalizer to make a more simple version. it's under the cut! :)

Yo, so here's the deal. UnitedHealthcare, the biggest health insurance company in the US, is supposedly using this totally messed up AI algorithm to screw over old folks and deny them the coverage they really need. It's a total mess. These elderly patients are getting booted out of rehab and care facilities way too early, and they're being forced to drain their savings just to get the care that should be covered by their Medicare Advantage Plan.

And get this, someone actually filed a lawsuit about it. It's going down in the US District Court for the District of Minnesota. The lawsuit is all about how UnitedHealth denied health coverage to two people who eventually died. But it's not just about them — there could be thousands of other people in similar situations.

This lawsuit lines up with an investigation by Stat News that basically supports all the claims. Stat got their hands on internal documents and talked to former employees of NaviHealth, which is a subsidiary of UnitedHealth that created this messed up AI algorithm called nH Predict.

One former employee, Amber Lynch, spilled the tea to Stat. She used to work for NaviHealth and said that the whole company cared more about money than actually helping patients. She hated how they treated patients like data points instead of human beings.

Here's the deal with nH Predict. It started being used by UnitedHealth back in November 2019, and they're still using it. Basically, this algorithm tries to guess how much care a patient on Medicare Advantage will need after they have, like, a big injury or illness. Stuff like therapy and skilled care in hospitals and nursing homes.

No one really knows how nH Predict works exactly, but it apparently takes info from a database with cases from 6 million patients. The case managers at NaviHealth put in some details about a patient, like age and living situation, and the algorithm spits out estimates based on similar patients in the database. It tries to figure out stuff like how long the patient will need care and when they can be discharged.

But here's the problem — the algorithm doesn't take a bunch of important factors into account, like other medical issues the patient might have or if they catch something like pneumonia or COVID-19 during their stay. It's a mess.

According to the investigation and the lawsuit, the estimates the algorithm gives are usually way off. With nH Predict, patients are hardly ever getting the full 100 days of covered care they're supposed to get in a nursing home. Usually, they only get like 14 days before UnitedHealth denies payment.

And get this, when patients or their doctors ask to see the algorithm's reports, UnitedHealth just says no and claims it's top secret. And if the doctors try to disagree with UnitedHealth's decision, tough luck. UnitedHealth just overrides them.

This whole thing is messed up, but sadly it's not the first time the healthcare industry has screwed up with AI. They've been doing this racist algorithm stuff for a while now. But what makes this situation even worse is that it seems like UnitedHealth is deliberately denying coverage to save money.

Ever since UnitedHealth bought NaviHealth, former employees say the company cares more about hitting targets and making post-acute care as short and cheap as possible. They even have requirements for case managers to follow the algorithm's predictions. If they don't, they could get in trouble or even lose their jobs.

Apparently, case managers are trained to defend the algorithm's estimates to patients and their caregivers. They use all these tactics to shut down any objections. Like, if a nursing home doesn't want to let a patient leave, the case manager will say the patient doesn't need certain care because of some calorie rule. It's like they don't even care about the patients.

And even if patients manage to win an appeal and get the denial overturned, UnitedHealth just comes right back with another denial a few days later. It's a never-ending cycle.

The lawsuit is fighting back against UnitedHealth and NaviHealth for all this shady behavior. They're accusing them of breaking contracts, not acting in good faith, unfairly getting rich, and violating insurance laws in a bunch of states. They want damages, emotional distress compensation, and for UnitedHealth to stop using the AI-based claims denials.

We don't know exactly how much money UnitedHealth saves with nH Predict, but it's gotta be a crazy amount. Last year, the CEO made almost $21 million, and other execs made millions too.

In the end, it's just a messed up situation. These elderly people are getting screwed over by an AI algorithm that values money over their health. It's not cool, and something needs to change.

UnitedHealthcare, the largest health insurance company in the US, is allegedly using a deeply flawed AI algorithm to override doctors' judgments and wrongfully deny critical health coverage to elderly patients. This has resulted in patients being kicked out of rehabilitation programs and care facilities far too early, forcing them to drain their life savings to obtain needed care that should be covered under their government-funded Medicare Advantage Plan.

It's not just flawed, it's flawed in UnitedHealthcare's favor.

That's not a flaw... that's fraud.

[ivankahasbeentreatedsounfairly]

As one of the nation’s largest health insurers, covering more than 50 million people, UnitedHealthcare has battled a range of complaints and investigations from patients, doctors and lawmakers for its denial of medical claims.

Those practices may face new scrutiny after law enforcement officials said that the bullet casings found at the site of the killing of the UnitedHealthcare chief executive Brian Thompson on Wednesday appeared to have messages, including the words “deny” and “delay,” written on them. The shooter’s motive and identity still remained unknown on Thursday, and no evidence has emerged that the killer was a UnitedHealthcare customer.

While the words “deny” and “delay” have multiple meanings, they could be a reference to the tactics used by insurers of all kinds to avoid paying claims. The words are so linked to those practices that they were used in the title of a 2010 book probing them, “Delay, Deny, Defend: Why Insurance Companies Don’t Pay Claims and What You Can Do About It.”

“An insurance company’s greatest expense is what it pays out in claims,” wrote the book’s author, Jay Feinman, an emeritus professor at Rutgers. “If it pays out less in claims, it keeps more in profits.”

No one knows how often private insurers like UnitedHealthcare deny claims because they are generally not required to publish that data. People who bought coverage under Obamacare, a government-funded plan, had 17 percent of their care denied in 2021, according to KFF, a health policy group. Other surveys have found that denials are more prevalent among those with private insurance than those who carried government coverage.

UnitedHealthcare, part of the giant conglomerate UnitedHealth Group, reported more than $16 billion in operating profits last year and employed roughly 140,000 people. The company is a frequent lightning rod for criticism over how it handles claims.

Earlier this year, a Senate committee investigated Medicare Advantage plans denying nursing care to patients who were recovering from falls and strokes. It concluded that three major companies — UnitedHealthcare, Humana and CVS, which owns Aetna — were intentionally denying claims for this expensive care to increase profits. UnitedHealthcare, the report noted, denied requests for such nursing stays three times more often than it did for other services. (Humana had an even higher figure, denying at a rate 16 times higher.)

UnitedHealthcare did not respond to a request for comment about its history of claim denial.

Journalists have also scrutinized United’s denial practices. In January, the health news outlet Stat published a detailed investigation into how a UnitedHealthcare subsidiary, NaviHealth, used algorithms to deny care for seniors enrolled in the company’s Medicare advantage plan.

The Stat investigation noted specific instances that troubled United employees, like when an older woman who had a stroke was only covered for half the nursing days typically required for recovery.

UnitedHealthcare and its parent company now face a class-action lawsuit over its use of the algorithm. In response to the Stat article, the company issued a statement that “the assertions that NaviHealth uses or incentivizes employees to use a tool to deny care are false.”

A 2023 story from ProPublica dived deep into the experience of one United patient, a college student who racked up $2 million in medical claims a year to treat a severe case of ulcerative colitis. The story showed United disregarding an internal report finding the expensive treatment to be necessary. The patient eventually sued United and received an undisclosed amount in a settlement.

Insurance denials are rarely appealed, with some studies finding appeal rates of roughly 1 percent.

UnitedHealthcare, in response to the ProPublica story, said that the patient took his medication at dosages that “far exceed” Food and Drug Administration guidelines, which led the insurer to “review treatment plans based on current clinical guidelines to help ensure patient safety.”

Since the news of Mr. Thompson’s death on Wednesday, some individuals on social media have expressed frustration over the company’s history of denying claims. Others have gone even further, celebrating the death of a top insurance executive.

The insurance industry has pushed back against the outrage. “The people in our industry are mission-driven professionals working to make coverage and care as affordable as possible and to help people navigate the complex medical system,” said Michael Tuffin, the president of AHIP, a major trade group, on LinkedIn. “We condemn any suggestion that threats against our colleagues — or anyone else in our country — are ever acceptable.”

The Massive UnitedHealth Hack Is Obamacare’s Fault and That’s No Lie

The following content is sponsored by Americans for Limited Government.

Remember that moment 15 years ago when then President Barack Obama promised that his plan for socialized medicine would not extend to illegal aliens, and Rep. Joe Wilson yelled out, “You lie!” Remember how Democrats and their media enablers all denounced Wilson both for his lack of decorum and for lying himself?

Wilson was wrong at the time. Not about calling out Obama for lying about Democrats’ plan to steal taxpayer money to give to their future voters; he was wrong to not say “You lie!” at every line that came out of Obama’s mouth. Even NPR gave Obama the “Lie of the Year” award in 2013 over Obamacare, and NPR only employs Democrats.

The ridiculously named Affordable Care Act (ACA) turns 15 years old next March. It is the crowning example of the Democrats saying that they just! want! to! help! people! but passing power grabs that only help themselves. Obama even found a way to twist the pejorative “Obamacare” into the catch-phrase, “Yes, Obama cares!”

Much like pre-Team America Iraq, the ACA was promised to make hospitals across America happy places with rainbow skies and rivers made of chocolate, where children dance and laugh and play with gumdrop smiles! However, what we’ve gotten instead is incompetence, massive profits for vertically integrated insurance companies, and even AI-backed healthcare rationing.

The incompetence that guided Obamacare was on display recently when cyber hackers outsmarted UnitedHealth Group in late February. The division of UnitedHealth Group that transmits claims, Change Healthcare, was the subject of a ransomware attack, delaying payments for prescriptions, doctors, and everything else. The company performs 15 billion transactions per year, so the consequences of UnitedHealth ignoring adequate cybersecurity is proving disastrous.

(...)

It appears you can get away with quite a bit when you’re a government-backed monopoly.

One of the reasons UnitedHealth pulls in its record profits is because it rations care. The company used AI to systemically deny benefits to people through an intermediary called NaviHealth. Insurance monopolies like UnitedHealth are increasingly trying to control every step of patient care, and technology is making that easy for them. So, if you’re one of the 52 percent of Americans worried about the future of AI, don’t worry: the bad stuff is already here.

It could get worse though.

From 2019 to 2022, AARP spent more than $60 million to push a “rent seeking” provision in the Inflation Reduction Act – legislation so dishonestly named that it makes the Affordable Care Act almost sound honest. This provision allows Medicare to engage in so-called “negotiations” with pharmaceutical manufacturers over prices.  The problem is that making companies an offer they can’t refuse by imposing a 95 percent tax on them if they don’t agree isn’t a negotiation at all. And AARP’s victory lap article left it unsaid how these negotiation requirements would benefit private insurers who subsidize AARP. Moreover, the IRA expands subsidies under ACA to private insurance providers, which will help pad those billion-dollar profits even more.

Free market policy advocacy group American Commitment President Phil Kerpen wrote, “Under the IRA insurers like UnitedHealth are in line for a financial windfall with super-sized subsidies for Obamacare policies and government price controls dictating pricing of many medicines.”

(...)

Obamacare is 21st century snake oil. It seems like when Obama said: “If you like your plan, you can keep it,” “This won’t cover illegal aliens,” “This won’t add a dime to the deficit,” or even “Obama cares,” what he meant was: “We will make your healthcare a badly run vertically integrated monopoly that will withhold care, enrich executives, and expose you to hackers.”

Health Is Wealth | The Path To Creating A Venture - Recruiting - hbs.edu

Rachel Sanders (MBA 2017) started her professional career working in healthcare focused investment banking. After spending four years working at Raymond James focused on middle market transactions, M&A, and the intersection of technology and business, she had a strong understanding of the opportunities to leverage technology to help people experience their healthcare in a better way. Driven by her own personal health experiences in where she constantly used a guess and check methodology to improve her health, she sought to learn how to solve health outcomes for more than just herself. “That is really the crux of why I went to HBS, and why I chose to get an MBA. I knew that I wanted to build something that would make an impact on people’s lives. “ Rachel spent her two years at HBS immersed in learning and soaking up as much information and experience as she could. “Using those two years as a time to experiment, to learn to launch something, but also to gain the skills on the operational side, and to expand my network. I was great at finance, I understood the healthcare market, but there was a lot of opportunity for learning while at HBS that I was really excited about.” RC year gave Rachel the foundation to make decisions on the fly and with little information. “If you’re operating as the Protagonist, what would you do…the case method beyond everything else really prepares you for the cold calls that you experience as a Founder, and that preparation is hard to get elsewhere.” Leveraging the HBS alumni network, Rachel secured an internship between her RC and EC years at naviHealth, Inc... a digital health company. This internship allowed her to make an impact at the organization by working on projects that shaped new product development and strategy, allowing Rachel to gain experience across strategy, product, and operations within the healthcare space. She took that experience into her EC year, where she was able to continue to build her network and flex her skills. It was in her EC year that Rachel connected with Julia Austin, senior lecturer at HBS’ Rock Center for Entrepreneurship. Rachel credits her connection with Austin as the biggest influence in her journey to becoming a Founder. Austin became a mentor, which she remains today, introducing her to “Good for Her,” a cohort of female founders, and connecting Rachel into the startup ecosystem initially. Through her relationship with Austin, Rachel connected with Alex Iskold, Coach and VC in Resident at the Arthur Rock Center for Entrepreneurship at HBS and Managing Partner at 2048 Ventures . It was Iskold who would ultimately introduce Rachel to Dr. Daniel Wallerstofer, PhD, her Co-Founder at Rootine. Launching Rootine After launching her first venture during her EC year, Rachel started experiencing stress, fatigue, and signs of burnout. She started to look at not only her nutrition, but her overall lifestyle – what she was doing for exercise and her sleep patterns – to try to improve her performance. It was during this time that she connected with Wallerstofer, who had a PhD in biotechnology and had spent the previous decade building consumer facing nutrition products based on health data, starting with genetics, and then moving into blood levels. Collectively, Rachel and Wallerstofer saw an opportunity to build a precision nutrition brand that was more data driven, science backed, and truly personalized. “We came together on this mission to empower individuals to leverage their data to achieve optimal health.” Rootine unlocks total body health through at-home lab testing, a precision multivitamin membership, in-app progress tracking, and an engaged, health-focused community. By combining science with health and wellness data, Rootine delivers a precision nutrition system that addresses each individual’s unique nutritional needs and provides real health benefits, differentiating itself from the competition. Founded as a remote-first company, Rootine was positioned well when the pandemic forced companies to move to a remote work environment. With their technology already at scale, and the pandemic highlighting the need for consumer health at home, Rootine was able to harness this momentum and launch and deliver more, allowing people to live healthier lives in a more convenient way. Female Founded & Future Focused As a female founder, Rachel educated herself on the nuances of being the minority within the startup ecosystem. “I’ve learned a lot along the way related to fundraising, and specifically what it means to be a female founder fundraising. And those learnings, are very helpful as I think about raising future funding.” As a result of her experiences, Rachel is committed to paying it forward and increasing the diversity of the startup ecosystem. “The tech startup and venture ecosystem is simply not diverse…I do my best every day, both as a leader of Rootine and everything else that I’m doing to try to make a dent in that problem.” Close to 50% of the investors in Rootine’s seed round were diverse or non-traditional investors between women, people of color, and people from Latinx communities. Across most of their business, there is a fairly equal distribution between male and female employees. “We are paying attention to and making sure that we’re getting the most diverse perspectives around the table. Research shows us that you create better outcomes when you do that.” “Looking at my angel investing and venture partner side, I believe that change will come from focusing on both sides of the table. Investing in more underrepresented founders, but also getting more non-traditional investors on cap tables. When I think about where I’m putting my small angel check dollars, it’s investing in female founders and getting females like myself on cap tables so more women have a seat at the table to voice their opinions.” The absence of women on cap tables has contributed to the gender wealth gap in the industry. “Thinking about how I can impact that on a small or large scale eventually, is something I’m constantly working on.” Hiring for a Startup Rachel advises other startups to find talent that is predisposed to solve problems and challenges. “Regardless of the role, I hire for curiosity. People that like to learn do better at a startup than people who don’t, because it inherently means there is a ton of problems that need to be solved…so the more people you bring on that can lean into problems and are curious around how to solve them, the better.” Being a remote first company, culture is incredibly important. “Culture is different for every company, but making sure the person is an additive is a big one to focus on.” When hiring for Rootine, candidates are often asked to complete a take-home project to assess not only their communication skills and their professional abilities, but also their remote working capabilities. “When you’re remote, transparency is key. Communication is key, and the ability to set boundaries and understand when you do or don’t have to be on Slack without having to be told is key, especially at an early-stage startup.” What’s Next for Rootine As the first precision nutrition brand for the connected health consumer, Rootine is building an end-to-end platform to empower members to solve common health concerns like energy, stress, immune health and more through data, precision insights and nutrition products, and community. With an increase in awareness and interest in health and wellness highlighted by the pandemic, Rootine continues to see success and grow. Rachel is looking forward to seeing her company continue to provide cutting edge solutions to health on a larger scale.
