That’s not really true. Insurance companies use intercompany eliminations to bypass the rules. Look at United Healthcare’s record-breaking profit.https://www.axios.com/2021/07/16/unitedhealth-optum-provider...

Trust me it isn’t 6%. United is one of the largest healthcare companies by market cap. They have aggressively acquired physicians under Optum, and use an accounting trick called intercompany eliminations to shuffle profits and skirt the law on the medical loss ratio. https://www.axios.com/2021/07/16/unitedhealth-optum-provider...

I must mention that I wrote the article titled “Opportunistic detection of type 2 diabetes using deep learning from frontal chest radiographs” (you can find it here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-39631-x). While many of these models present promising advantages for population health, there are still many challenges related to bias and execution. However, it’s worth noting that early disease detection can provide benefits, not necessarily cures. The IDEAs study is a good example of this in Alzheimer’s disease.
