Dan Diamond, the national health reporter at the Washington Post, reflects on the shock of both United Health executive Brian Thompson's tragic murder and the subsequent tsunami of anger and glee on social media. We've entered “a staggering moment” that does not feel real, but nonetheless reveals the remarkable depth of discontent with the American health system, in particular insurers. “Everything feels grey to me.” This moment is grounded in the collapse of trust, including trust in the media. United Health, America's fourth largest firm, and the most powerful firm in the health sector, inevitably attracts—and will continue to attract—tough scrutiny and enduring questions over why the U.S. health system is so dysfunctional. This week Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. ventures to the Senate, where many Senate members simply do not know what to make of him. He has issued so many different statements on so many topics at different times to different audiences. While RFK Jr.'s vaccine positions will get the greatest play and are likely to remain a red line for Democrats, his pivot to chronic disease prevention and healthy food has rallied many to his side. Perhaps DOGE will be a vehicle for introducing progressive and budget reform ideas into the Republican Party in a new way. Will there be progress in changing the seasonal clock in America, a lighter, perennial topic? Probably not. There “is not a real path forward.”

New York police say Mangione killed Thompson, 50, with a fatal shot to his torso.

Nearly 80 percent of registered voters in the United States say that healthcare is either an extremely or very important issue, according to a recent Gallop poll.

In February, a massive cyberattack nearly brought down the entire U.S. health system. Doctors are still reeling, and many patients don't even know their data has been exposed. Today, Dan Diamond traces what went wrong and the new scrutiny in Congress.Read more:Even if UnitedHealthcare isn't your health insurer, the company has probably interacted with you or your data in some way. UnitedHealth Group is both the nation's largest insurer and its largest employer of physicians. It owns pharmacies and home health agencies. One of its subsidiaries, Change Healthcare, processes more than 40 percent of the country's medical claims, acting as a kind of “information superhighway,” explains the Post's national health reporter, Dan Diamond. In February, hackers broke into that system and led to what is being described as the largest cyberattack ever in American health care. Behind the scenes, the attack froze health payments and compromised patient information. It spread pain across doctors and hospitals nationwide, especially in rural communities. It's still unclear how many people have been impacted, and the breach has yet to be fully resolved. The chaos and fallout brought UnitedHealth Group's CEO, Andrew Witty, to testify this week before Congress for the first time in more than 15 years. During separate House and Senate committee hearings, representatives grilled Witty on why basic security safeguards were lacking and, more broadly, whether UnitedHealth Group might have become too big, raising bigger questions about how U.S. health care operates.
