Remember, their priority is money, not health care, as seen in the recent NCQA rankings:

Health care is a public good, not just an industry, to be governed by the same economic principles that govern pure business. Value in health care can only be assessed by weighing cost and quality together. Quality health coverage not only improves care, it saves lives.

UnitedHealth’s record in this regard, as measured by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), is as revealing as is its animosity toward physicians and hospitals. According to last year’s ranking of the country’s best health plans by NCQA and US News & World Report, UnitedHealth’s highest-rated plan was UnitedHealth New England at 77. UnitedHealth New York was even lower at 125. . .

. . . What makes UnitedHealth’s rankings particularly unsettling is the fact they are based on such important criteria as access to care, member satisfaction, disease prevention and treatment.
