Why Kevin O’Leary thinks healthcare CEOs need to listen to the public

After the tragic shooting of Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, many healthcare companies responded by increasing their security measures. They hired more guards and even installed fences around their headquarters. However, Kevin O’Leary strongly disagrees with this approach.

He argued that the real solution is not more security, but a shift in how healthcare executives address the growing public frustration with the healthcare system. In an interview viaCNN, O’Leary commented on the current state of healthcare companies adding:

Putting a fence around headquarters, hiring more security guards — that’s all bad imagery. It’s all bad and it’s not the right answer.

For O’Leary, these security measures are merely a response to fear and do nothing to address the deeper issues affecting healthcare in America. He believes that healthcare executives must listen to the concerns of the public, particularly regarding the increasingly common problems of delayed claims and payment denials. O’Leary stressed:

You’ve got to read the room and realize right now that the public is turning against you. They are your customers and they don’t like it

In his view, it’s crucial for companies to acknowledge their customers’ frustration rather than focusing on security. O’Leary also offered a solution based on technology. He believes that automation can play a critical role in improving healthcare services.

He explained,“When you appeal a case, it’s not a delay situation and if you have a valid claim, you get paid out.”According to O’Leary, technology should not be used to streamline the denial of claims, but rather to speed up the process and ensure that valid claims are honored promptly. By doing so, healthcare companies could foster greater trust with their customers.
