However, the apparently targeted nature of the attack and the words \u201cdelay,\u201d \u201cdeny\u201d and possibly \u201cdepose\u201d written on the shell casings \u2013 along with bullets recovered from the scene of the shooting \u2013 have suggested it is linked to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2024\/dec\/07\/brian-thompson-killing-healthcare-industry\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">healthcare insurance industry\u2019s routine denial<\/a> of payments for medical services to many Americans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Healthcare debt is the leading cause of bankruptcy in the US, with for-profit healthcare insurers such as UnitedHealthcare among the wealthiest corporations in the country. Thompson, who lived in Minnesota near the company\u2019s headquarters, earned $10m a year in his role as chief executive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The shooting has caused deep shock within the health insurance industry. And UnitedHealthcare has since started <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2024\/dec\/06\/united-healthcare-shooting-increased-security\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">looking to upgrade its security for staff<\/a>. \u201cWhile our hearts are broken, we have been touched by the huge outpouring of kindness and support in the hours since this horrific crime took place,\u201d the company said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Other insurers have taken similar precautionary steps in the wake of the attack, with government health insurance provider Centene Corp changing its investor day to a virtual event. And Medica, a Minnesota-based non-profit healthcare firm that has about 3,000 employees, said it is temporarily closing all six of its offices. Staff will work from home in a measure the company said was due to an \u201cabundance of caution\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2024\/dec\/07\/fbi-reward-unitedhealthcare-ceo-brian-thompson\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The FBI has said it is offering $50,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the gunman who fatally shot the chief executive of UnitedHealthcare in New York &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=134512\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8629],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-134512","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-u-s","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=134512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134512\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=134512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=134512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=134512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
