Thank you @murray.senate.gov for your legislation to block CMS's WISeR pilot! This program would use AI-assisted prior authorization in Medicare in 6 states starting 2026 & would delay/deny care, embed financial incentives to withhold services, & represents a step toward privatizing Medicare.

“Value-based care” in UnitedHealth’s Optum division apparently means fewer doctors for fatter margins. It made $4.3 billion in profit in the last 3 months by raising health care premiums & collecting billions more from the Medicare Trust Fund & seniors, a strategy of Profit over Patients.

We support SJM 8201! It allows WA to invest long-term care funds more productively, and here's why. The State Investment Board would invest a portion of only the long term care fund's reserves in equities (stocks), which, historical evidence shows, generate higher returns over the long term.
