John Hamilton Thompson: A wish for health care advocacy

I wish Brian Thompson, the former CEO of UnitedHealthcare, had met a different fate than the end of his life by gunfire. I would have been delighted to see Mr. Thompson (no relation to me) have an overwhelming and irresistible change of heart and mind regarding the care of his clientele.

He could have become a powerful advocate against the “deny and delay” tactics for which private health insurers are reviled. This might have meant a flow of joy in his daily round and hastened the arrival of a Medicare for All, single-payer health care access system. What joy and relief that would also bring to many of us.
