UnitedHealth's $43 Billion Exit From Fee-For-Service Medicine

If United Health would follow this for stroke rehab there would probably pay for only the 10% full recovery rate. Our doctors would state that their work is what caused the normal spontaneous recovery and fraudulently claim payments for that. Right now if pay for performance would exist there would not be a neurologist paid for anything in stroke rehab. I bet this will still not be enough for our stroke medical system to come up with effective stroke protocols. Stroke survivors are totally f*cking screwed until the complete stroke medical world is replaced.
