APHI still profits, but doesn’t fall into the Kaiser trap of becoming too close to a state government. Competition will make profit for APHI not a state monopoly. The main focus here then will be to provide affordable coverage to the largest amount of people, instead of pricier coverage for a few. The goal is provide for as many of the 8 million uninsured Californians as possible and quickly because if California begins to offer incentives (and they will, they don’t have the money to provide for them) other insurance companies will vie for them too so it’s best to have a presence in the state as soon as possible.
Conclusion
By looking at California’s healthcare history, the numerous possibilities of making a profit in the state, and how the state government will contribute to making that possible, the Medical Liaison believes that expansion into the region would be the best logical step for APHI. The board has all the information it needs to avoid the mistakes of past healthcare providers and use the current condition in California to its advantage. By doing so not only will profit be made, but the board can feel good knowing that millions of people who would have gone uninsured otherwise, now will be able to have affordable healthcare and have their needs taken take of.
