Word: “An Arm and a Leg” makes use of speech-recognition software program to generate transcripts, which can include errors. Please use the transcript as a instrument however test the corresponding audio earlier than quoting the podcast.

Dan: Hey there–

Final month, I noticed a wild tweet from a health care provider in New York — and many different individuals noticed it too. It made the rounds.

It mentioned that Optum — a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group, higher identified for working the massive insurance coverage firm UnitedHealthcare– quote, “is now working a payday mortgage enterprise concentrating on medical practices.”

This physician wrote that United “denies and delays” funds to docs– in different phrases, hurting their money move, making them targets for a “payday mortgage enterprise.”

One factor checked out instantly: Optum is providing loans to docs and different suppliers, at curiosity. And the pitch is money move.

Voiceover: Optum Pay Advance is constructed for healthcare organizations like yours. We’ve developed a custom-made money move answer that offers straightforward and quick entry to funds.

Dan: The web site provides an instance the place a $100 “mortgage” means $65 to you upfront, and them maintaining $35.

The doc who tweeted it referred to as the thought “Genius!,” exclamation level.

You realize, genius like in “evil genius.” It seemed like my boss telling me: 

“Hey, Dan. Payday’s Friday. And I’ve received unhealthy information and excellent news. The unhealthy information is, I’m not gonna pay you Friday. I’m gonna do a deep dive in your timesheet, and I could ask you for a bunch of supporting paperwork. Actually, I don’t know the way lengthy it’ll take, or how a lot I’m truly going to pay you. So, , that’s the unhealthy information. The excellent news is: I can entrance you among the cash. I’ll simply take it out of any future paychecks, plus slightly one thing for my bother. Say, 35 %?”

I talked with the physician who posted the tweet: Alex Shteynshlyuger, a urologist in New York.

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger: In order that’s an unimaginable marketing strategy. You need to be… actually inventive, to give you that enterprise thought. You additionally must have metal balls to truly suggest that publicly. I imply, it’s a must to not have any ethical compass in any respect.

Dan: Now, having seemed into it, I’ve gotta say: It might not be EXACTLY that straightforward. UnitedHealth Group operates an enormous net of well being care enterprises, not simply insurance coverage. These “payday loans” are in a unique a part of the online from the insurance coverage facet.

However that seems to be the story: The scale and complexity of that net — the best way it surrounds docs like Alex Shteynshlyuger, the best way it retains getting tighter, round all of us, and what that appears to price us– that’s the story right here. UnitedHealth Group will not be the one firm weaving a large net, nevertheless it seems they’re the most important.

And, so far as I do know, they’re the one ones providing payday loans to docs. So let’s make them our case examine.

That is An Arm and a Leg, a present about why well being care prices so freaking a lot, and what we will possibly do about it. I’m Dan Weissmann. I’m a reporter, and I like a problem. So the job we’ve chosen right here is to take one of the vital enraging, terrifying, miserable elements of American life, and convey you one thing entertaining, empowering, and helpful.

So, let’s begin with Dr. Shteynshlyuger. He began his personal apply about ten years in the past, and after just a few years, he determined to exit of community with most insurance coverage.

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger: I nonetheless would like to be in community as a result of it’s a lot simpler to apply in a method. It lowers prices to the sufferers, which make them extra prone to come and see me.

Dan: He’d prefer to, however there was an issue. The charges insurers paid for his companies.

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger: I don’t have a market energy to barter with insurance coverage corporations, so what they do is they provide me the kind of charges the place you possibly can’t stand and keep in enterprise.

Dan: With one insurer, he says he misplaced cash on each case. He says he requested to barter.

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger: I didn’t even get a counter proposal. I simply received a, just a few sentence response that we don’t negotiate.

Dan: Full disclosure: I haven’t seen a replica of that response. However what he’s saying echoes tons of different reporting. Insurers pay greater charges to greater entities.

Loads greater.

For one of many first episodes we ever did, I talked with Jenny Gold, who was a reporter for KFF Well being Information [and of course they’ve since become our co-producers on this show]. She had mixed two databases to research 1000’s of circumstances.

She was taking a look at costs for delivering infants within the Bay Space, and he or she discovered

that when it was a giant native hospital system billing, versus a health care provider in solo

apply, insurance coverage paid double — generally greater than thrice as a lot —

for the very same service.

Her conclusion was: Huge programs have numerous clout. And small fry get instructed “take it or depart it.”

That’s the sort of factor Dr. Shteynshlyuger says he was up in opposition to. So he decides he can’t survive on these take-it-or-leave it charges, and he goes out of community.

Nevertheless it’s not like this takes out of the world of coping with insurance coverage corporations:

His sufferers have insurance coverage with out-of-network advantages, so he recordsdata numerous claims for them. He says he doesn’t all the time receives a commission– and sometimes when he does receives a commission, he says it takes a very long time, and plenty of work.

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger: They will throw up varied boundaries saying we want medical information and after they get medical information which can be clear reduce, like day and evening, you possibly can’t, a blind man can’t make, , uh, an error judging that the care was offered. They nonetheless discover A motive to disclaim.

Dan: What he’s saying strains up with what others have discovered.

As an example, based on knowledge compiled by KFF, UnitedHealthcare reported to the federal authorities that they denied 23 % of claims. They usually’re in the midst of the pack. Some insurers deny much more.

However 23 % — that’s nearly one in 4.

Think about if one out of each 4 paychecks, your boss was like, “Naaah, I don’t suppose you actually labored these hours.”

And there’s an appeals course of. However in the event you’re listening to this present, you will have had the expertise of interesting an insurance coverage denial once you’re the affected person. Otherwise you’ve heard the tales, possibly right here, possibly from individuals .

It’s no person’s thought of an excellent time, or a fast course of. And a few fights, you possibly can’t win.

Now, think about you needed to combat like that for each fourth paycheck.

The end result, Dr. Shteynshlyuger says, is that docs like him are leaving non-public apply. And infrequently becoming a member of larger entities, with extra clout.

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger: There was plenty of urologists in non-public apply after I began. And at present, you possibly can barely depend them on one hand.

Dan: And we did discover a examine exhibiting that there have been loads fewer urologists in non-public apply in New York than just some years in the past.

… and writ giant: The variety of docs in non-public apply is shrinking, rapidly, throughout the nation.

In accordance with the American Medical Affiliation, 2020 was the primary 12 months when docs in non-public apply turned a minority. Lower than a decade earlier than that, the quantity had been 60 %.

And who has been shopping for up doctor practices like no person’s enterprise? UnitedHealth Group’s’s Optum Well being. Two years in the past, they caught as much as the 2 largest hospital chains as employers of docs, at 50,000. They usually’ve saved going. Now they’re as much as 70,000.

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger sees this as one large circle:

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger: So what they sometimes do is that they run the apply into the bottom after which they purchase it.

Dan: This seems like a conspiracy: Squeeze your opponents, so once you come providing to purchase, you’ve received a … motivated vendor.

And I’m not satisfied it’s that… coordinated. United Healthcare’s not the one large insurance coverage firm that squeezes small practices with low charges and many denials. And docs have complained about it for a LONG time.

They usually’re not the one ones shopping for up small practices– hospitals and personal equity-backed corporations have been doing the identical factor, for lots longer than United.

Equally, when Dr. Shteynshlyuger describes what he calls the payday mortgage

setup, he talks about it like mainly a conspiracy.

Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger: I imply, who can give you one thing like that? First, you don’t pay docs or make them unable to fulfill the payroll. And then you definitely supply them the mortgage from the cash that you simply haven’t paid them.

Dan: UnitedHealth Group disagrees. They wouldn’t go on tape with us– and we requested– we had numerous questions. However they despatched me an announcement, and it reads, partly:

Optum Financial institution’s Working Capital mortgage presents suppliers an choice to entry capital at market aggressive phrases. The speculative theories shared with us don’t have any advantage.

And truly, it’s not fairly as easy as Dr. Shteynshlyuger says:

Loaning out precisely the money they’d be paying him.

Technically, at the least, the cash behind Optum Payday Advance doesn’t come

from insurance coverage premiums.

However from Dr. Shteynshlyuger’s perspective, it’s like UnitedHealth Group is surrounding him on a number of sides: They’re the insurance coverage firm he’s sending payments to, and preventing with.

And by gobbling up so many medical practices– together with just a few native urology practices — they’ve additionally change into HIS DIRECT COMPETITOR. And now, there’s what he calls this “payday mortgage enterprise.”

UnitedHealth Group doesn’t must conspire in opposition to him. They’re already throughout him. And United — and different large entities — are more and more surrounding each well being care supplier we would need to see.

Surrounding them with an online that’s getting larger and thicker on a regular basis. 

I’m calling it an online, however one professional presents a unique picture:

Lawton Robert Burns: One in all my colleagues calls United a behemoth.

Dan: That’s coming proper up. This episode of An Arm and a Leg is produced in partnership with KFF Well being Information. That’s a nonprofit newsroom masking healthcare in America. Their work wins all types of journalism awards yearly. I’m honored to work with them. 

So, it’s time to get a birds’ eye view. Let’s hear from an professional. Let’s hear from…

Lawton Robert Burns: Lawton Robert Burns. I’m a professor in well being care administration on the Wharton College on the College of Pennsylvania. I mainly examine every thing about well being care and have been doing so for over 40 years. And as I like to inform individuals, I’m simply starting to know it.

*Dan and Lawton chuckle*

Dan: He’s the creator of books like “The Well being Care Eco-System.” The Senate Finance Committee requested him to return and speak in March. So, I believe he ought to be adequate for us.

He says UnitedHealth Group will not be the one firm making an attempt to weave an online. 

Lawton Robert Burns: There are six or seven different gamers on the market who’re doing the very same factor.

Dan: However United’s the most important. Greatest insurance coverage firm. Greatest employer of physicians. Greatest at a bunch of technical back-end stuff.

Lawton Robert Burns: One in all my colleagues calls United a behemoth.

That’s most likely one of the best ways to explain – they’re a behemoth.

Dan: And all people else — any participant of any dimension– desires to be one.

Lawton Robert Burns: All people desires to get larger. And that’s the company technique of all people in healthcare. Simply get large. Do you keep in mind who Al Davis is?

Dan: So, I didn’t. However he was a legendary proprietor and supervisor of the Oakland Raiders like 40 years in the past, after I guess they had been successful plenty of Tremendous Bowls. And there’s a well-known clip of him.

Lawton Robert Burns: A press convention held proper after they received the Tremendous Bowl. Al Davis is sitting there receiving the Tremendous Bowl trophy.

Dan: And the announcer asks: How do you retain successful like this? And Al Davis says, you’ve gotta have nice coaches

Al Davis: Then, after you’ve nice coaches, you get nice gamers, you’ve an awesome group,…

Lawton Robert Burns: You need to have good administration, and also you inform them one factor…

Al Davis: Simply win. Simply win, child.

Lawton Robert Burns: And he’s received this large grin on his face. Simply win child. And so I’ve taken that and I mentioned, okay, all these gamers in well being care have taken a web page out of Al Davis’s ebook and it’s referred to as simply develop child. So if you wish to know what’s occurring, I simply keep in mind Al Davis. It’s simply develop child. And that’s all that every one of those persons are doing. It’s not be extra environment friendly or have greater high quality or to enhance entry to well being care. All these things is window dressing and a canopy for what’s actually occurring. What’s occurring right here is it’s simply develop child.

Dan: And Lawton Robert Burns will not be so large on progress. His most up-to-date ebook is known as “Huge Med: Megaproviders and the excessive price of well being care in America.” He’s fast to level out, that ebook doesn’t have a look at United, which is now arguably the most important megaprovider. That ebook solely appears at hospitals consolidating– merging into Huge Med.

Lawton Robert Burns: The hospital sector is the place we’ve extra proof.

Than wherever else. And the outcomes there present that costs go up. When

hospitals consolidate, prices go up when hospitals consolidate, high quality stays

the identical or declines when hospitals consolidate, it’s not a fairly image.

Dan: There’s much less knowledge for different kinds of gamers in well being care, however he’s checked out what knowledge there’s.

Lawton Robert Burns: Throughout nearly all sectors, there’s little or no excellent news about what occurs when these organizations. or these sectors of well being care get larger.

Dan: What in regards to the claims from large corporations like United that they supply higher service as a result of they’ll coordinate, I imply right here’s what United mentioned within the assertion they gave me:

“We’re dedicated to enhancing the well being system for everybody, advancing evidence-based apply and aligning incentives throughout the system to make sure individuals get the proper care on the proper time in the proper place.”

Lawton Robert Burns: Who’s not going to say that? Come on?

Dan: What in regards to the thought of economies of scale? Like, you purchase one million stethoscopes, you get a greater deal. He’s like, yeah. Economies of scale, huh?

Lawton Robert Burns: it’s the one most invoked rationale for getting larger, however there’s little or no proof that it exists. Right here’s what I inform my college students: Whenever you hear the expression economies of scale, suppose BS.

Dan: So, Lawton Robert Burns will not be seeing the upside. And he’s not seeing any controls.

Lawton Robert Burns: The regulatory companies, each the federal and the state degree don’t have, , all of the horses on the planet to pursue every thing that’s occurring. They’re simply too many of those offers occurring large and small, involving hospitals, docs, insurance coverage, different, , they don’t have the horses. To, like, do something about it, not to mention monitor it.

Dan: Yeah. And so it leaves me, involved

Lawton Robert Burns: Yeah, you’re proper.

Dan: Erin Fuse Brown is anxious too. She’s a regulation professor at Georgia State. She research consolidation within the well being care enterprise, and he or she’s a pal of the present, so she’s just about the primary particular person I referred to as for a tackle what Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger calls the payday mortgage proposition.

Erin Fuse Brown: Okay, let’s see if I could be type of, uh, politic about this. It

sounds completely loopy.

Dan: If Lawton Robert Burns is skeptical of behemoths– like, doesn’t see the proof that they’re good — regulation professor Erin Fuse Brown is able to see the harms.

As a result of this can be a entire space of regulation: It’s referred to as antitrust, proper? The concept is, corporations can get too large for anyone’s good. They will choke out competitors and simply milk all people for revenue.

And United Well being Group as a behemoth — largest insurer, the most important supplier — opens up an entire new sort of antitrust query.

Erin Fuse Brown: That simply blows my thoughts, I don’t even know what occurs when these two issues occur, like collide into one entity, these two issues occur, like collide into one entity, um, I, I, I don’t know. I’m slightly afraid, proper? Like I believe that we’re going to get it on either side, like our premiums are going to go up, our costs are going to go up, and so they’re those who’re making the most of all of that.

Dan:And their earnings are SUPER-high proper now. The inventory worth is thru the roof. Erin Fuse Brown says, it’s an issue that regulators can’t sustain with the tempo of offers that flip an organization right into a behemoth.

Erin Fuse Brown:. As soon as it’s shaped, antitrust has little or no means to interrupt it up or restore competitors to a market.

Dan: So, that’s regarding. However the issue isn’t simply that antitrust regulators can’t sustain with the tempo of those offers. It’s that anti-trust regulators don’t have a great way to combat sure sorts of offers which can be changing into widespread.

Erin Fuse Brown: Antitrust has not been doing a very good job of policing or going after transactions which can be vertical in nature.

Dan: Vertical in nature. That is the best way anti-trust of us discuss what corporations like United Well being Group are doing: Spinning an online that covers numerous completely different sectors.

So, HORIZONTAL consolidation can be United shopping for one other insurance coverage firm.

VERTICAL consolidation is United using tens of 1000’s of docs.

Erin Fuse Brown: Antitrust has an excellent observe report of a horizontal hospital in a single metropolis shopping for one other large hospital in the identical metropolis. That antitrust is able to, , of preventing. However there isn’t any observe report in well being care of a profitable vertical problem.

Dan: And he or she says the shortage of a observe report is sort of a self-perpetuating downside.

Erin Fuse Brown: nobody desires to be the primary mover. No decide desires to rule with out precedent, even when the financial proof is beginning to pile up that these vertical consolidations are Simply as competitively dangerous.

Dan: And recognizing that downside, regulators deliver fewer circumstances.

Erin Fuse Brown: The antitrust companies don’t need unhealthy precedent. And they also’re, they’re hesitant to deliver these circumstances. I imply, it’s straightforward to sit down in my ivory tower and, and dare the Division of Justice and the, and the FTC to be extra daring, um, however to truly begin bringing these circumstances, , construct up the proof base. Like they must get a win on the board so as to have the ability to, um, go after these mergers and I, and in the event that they don’t, and the issue is, is just like the one time they’ve tried, um, I believe in latest reminiscence, which was the United Change case, they misplaced.

Dan: Yeah, UnitedHealth Group needed to purchase an organization referred to as Change Healthcare, which does a bunch of back-end stuff to resolve insurance coverage claims. They do it for many insurance coverage corporations.

And the feds mentioned: Whoa, maintain up. No. That’s gonna allow you to see what all the opposite insurance coverage corporations are doing. You’ll have entry to all their most delicate knowledge.

The feds introduced that case.

United mentioned in court docket: It could completely by no means exploit that knowledge.

Erin Fuse Brown: it’s saying it’s not going to have a look at its opponents knowledge

for anti aggressive benefit,

Dan: United mentioned it already had entry to tons of delicate knowledge — from different back-end features it was already performing for different corporations.

If these opponents trusted them, why shouldn’t the court docket? The decide purchased that argument, and the feds misplaced. That was simply final 12 months.

Erin Fuse Brown: And I believe that has some unfavourable results as effectively, it emboldens it.

Dan: So we find yourself with these rising behemoths, with increasingly “market energy.”

Erin Fuse Brown: As soon as they type, there’s little or no one can do to cease them from utilizing that market energy to extend costs or, cut back entry or, or no matter unhealthy impact would possibly then finally attain the patron.

Dan: Which does. Not. Sound. Nice.

However– I seemed up the essay that labeled United a behemoth.

And the creator– a man named Jeffrey Goldsmith– famous that behemoths don’t essentially final without end. He wrote:

United has grown to its current immense scale largely with out public data.

People are suspicious of huge enterprises, as companies from Normal Oil, US Metal and ATT to Microsoft and Fb have realized.

He thinks United is “extremely weak” to the danger {that a} large information occasion will crystallize public opinion in opposition to them — will affirm the narrative “that United is principally about maximizing its personal earnings, not about enhancing the well being of its subscribers or the communities it serves. It’s not clear how most of the tens of thousands and thousands of United subscribers have heat and fuzzy emotions about their large well being insurer.”

Me, I’m guessing: Not too many.

For now, for these of us who could NOT have such heat, fuzzy emotions, we’ve

made a begin: We’re beginning, proper right here, to construct extra public data, our

personal data, about UnitedHealth Group’s immense scale.

And data is the start of energy.

I’ll catch you in just a few weeks.

Until then, handle your self.
