goldsnow: Don't fall for United Health Care HMO trick of " giving in to doctors and making the doctors' decision final ". It's just blue smoke and mirrors. This is just a ploy to placate ANGRY State Legislatures and Consumers and prevent them from passing laws that will slit the HMOs throat. If legislatures bought this move and not pass stringent laws, then as soon as the dog is back in the cage the HMOs come out and surreptitiously as usual go on to screwing the consumer. United's decision is silly: If they give in to the Docs to decide, as they say they will do, how will an HMO differ from a plain vanilla Blue Cross? Where are the savings going to come from. No. United's decision means nothing. Makes absolutely no difference. Lawsuit against HMOS will begin with a vengeance. Health costs will sky rocket. Gold will go to 400+. Nice move today from Friday. I have already a small profit. Waiting for Wed PPI. Alan G: Where are you? Can you hear us? This market needs a wrench across the nasal bridge to slow down to the desired speed, GGGG. Wake up Alan!!!
