We know the health system does not work as well as it should, and we understand peopleโ€™s frustrations with it. No one would design a system like the one we have. And no one did. Itโ€™s a patchwork built over decades. Our mission is to help make it work better. We are willing to partner with anyone, as we always have โ€” health care providers, employers, patients, pharmaceutical companies, governments and others โ€” to find ways to deliver high-quality care and lower costs.

Clearly, we are not there yet. We understand and share the desire to build a health care system that works better for everyone. That is the purpose of our organization.

This is such an annoying thing to write. The โ€œpurposeโ€ of UHC is not to โ€œbuild a health care system that works better for everyone.โ€ Itโ€™s a publicly traded company! Its purpose is to maximize value for shareholders! What are we doing here www.nytimes.com/2024/12/13/o...

1/6 Dr. Helen Ouyang in @nytimes.com: โ€œThe country is not heading toward a single-payer system, but that doesnโ€™t mean we have to continue leaving patients and their doctors in the dark.โ€
Yes, it does in fact mean that, absent some other drastic reform.
