Congressman Pete Stark Thinks Health Insurers Make Too Much Money

I’m sorry – I read this story and could think of no better title.

To what extent did the insurance company profits amount to?

WellPoint earned about $22 per medical insurance enrollee during the quarter..

Aetna earned about $27 in net profits per insurance plan enrollee during the quarter, or about $9 per month..

Now you know the mentality of those that pushed Health Care Reform – if we made $9 per month per insured, we’d have gone bankrupt years ago.

Every now and then – I read something that just rubs me the wrong way. But, members of Congress who call a $9 per person per month profit a windfall should not be in office.
