    This was a workman’s comp insurance CEO not a US healthcare CEO. The difference is unlike healthcare insurers, workman’s comp isn’t paid into by the victim and they actually provide some benefit at least in theory.

      Except if you ask anyone that’s ever had to deal with workers comp its always too little too late and a mountain of bullshit. Workers comp is arguably even worse than normal health insurance companies to deal with.

        Again in theiry the difference is workman’s comp still provides a service whereas other than rent seeking I am not sure what us health insurers do.
