Replay! 3Q 2023 Earnings Recap | MCOs + Drug Channel - 2023.11.15 Replay

Health care generally is in this magic moment where inflation has subsided (ex drugs), reimbursement is catching up, investment income has ramped and generally there is still a decent amount of money sloshing about to ameliorate what is normally a zero sum game between providers and payers. Meanwhile the drug channel is benefitting from 10% inflation, likely a response to the Inflation Reduction Act's price caps.

There are some open questions like Medicaid disenrollment which I remain confident is going to be a slog as coverage activists try and low any perceived coverage losses down.
