Kaiser's senior advantage program raised their registration fee from 5 to $10. When I chose this option, Kaiser was bragging what a great op this program was for the elderly who chose to have all their medical services provided exclusively by Kaiser. That year they lost 50 mil.
This last year they gained 50 mil. My quarterly costs are still much lower than they used to be paid for by medicare. Figure that one out.
