Healthcare Investors Bet On Easier Medicare Rules Under Potential Trump Administration

Healthcare Investors Bet On Easier Medicare Rules Under Potential Trump Administration

医疗保健投资者押注于特朗普政府下更容易的医疗保险规则

Healthcare investors are expecting Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump to ease regulations on Medicare Advantage if the former president wins and returns to the White House.

医疗保健投资者们希望共和党总统候选人特朗普在获胜并重返白宫后放松医疗补偿方面的管制。

Under the Biden administration, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has hardened its stance on the program after it faced criticism for insurers overbilling the government and denying care to seniors too many times, the Wall Street Journal reported.

《华尔街日报》报道称,在担心保险公司向政府过度收费和拒绝老年人医护的批评后,拜登政府领导下的医疗保险服务中心已经加强了对该计划的监管。

Republicans tend to favor privatizing government services and have been friendlier to Medicare Advantage plans, a trend that investors are betting could continue under a second Trump administration.

共和党人倾向于支持政府服务的私有化,并且对医疗补偿计划更加友好,投资者们认为这一趋势在特朗普连任下会继续。

Regulatory easing on Medicare Advantage could also rekindle talks on possible mergers between health insurers. The Cigna Group (NYSE:CI) and Humana Inc. (NYSE:HUM) have discussed merging, but they backed away from the deal over antitrust issues and worries over Medicare, the Journal reported in November.

放宽医疗补偿方面的管制也可能重新点燃保险公司可能合并的谈判。《华尔街日报》在11月份报道称,信诺集团(纽交所:CI)和哈门那公司(纽交所:HUM)已经探讨合并,但由于反垄断问题和担心医疗补偿问题而放弃了这笔交易。

Price Action: The health insurance sector gave mixed results on Wall Street. United Healthcare Group Inc. (NYSE:UNH) gained 4.44% to $573.28, while Elevance Health, Inc. (NYSE:ELV) dropped 5.95% to $520.21 and Cigna rose 1.49% to $344.76 on Wednesday.
