Tony Blair's N.I.C.E. Issues New UnitedHealth Group Report: How to Kill American Seniors

July 1, 2009 (LPAC)—Today in Washington, D.C., at the offices of one of the world's largest HMOs, UnitedHealth Group, a new report was issued on how to kill off selected segments of Americans. The author is Simon Stevens, Vice President for elderly "managed care" at UnitedHealth, and formerly Tony Blair's top health adviser (1997-2004). Under Blair and Stevens, the infamous N.I.C.E. (National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence) was set up (1999), to decree Hitler-type rules on who would get medical treatment and who would not, and die.

EIR reporter Carl Osgood was refused entrance at today's "for the media" UnitedHealth event. EIR, its top editor Lyndon LaRouche, and his political action committee, LaRouchePAC, have made known the Nazi-medicine pedigree of N.I.C.E. and the Tony Blair crowd, in particular Simon Stevens. The exclusion of EIR reflects how fierce the battleground in Washington, D.C. is right now.

UnitedHealth Group is well-positioned to enforce care cut-offs and death for seniors and the poor. It acts as the "supplemental" insurer for one of every five Medicare enrollees (over-65 government health care). It is the largest Medicare health plan in the United States, thanks to a public/private partnership with Medicare and AARP (American Association of Retired Persons), the biggest voluntary member organization in the world today (40 million). UnitedHealth is also the largest Medicaid health plan (for the poor), operating in 22 states and the District of Columbia.

The new 21-page report is titled, Health Care Cost-Containment—How Technology Can Cut Red Tape and Simplify Health Care Administration. It presents a list of 12 "Options," by which it states that $332 billion can be cut out of U.S. health expenditures on "administration," over 2010-2019. In short, the list includes proposals based on having a nationwide Big Brother "Electric Data Interchange", combined with automated cards for the patient/victim, so that "at the point of service," medical treatment or diagnostic procedures can be easily approved or denied from on high. Combined with this, the List of Options calls for "new system-wide standards and processes," to determine how much hospitals, doctors and others will or won't be paid, based on how they obey new rules of treatment.

This report is the second after Stevens delivered one on May 27 on cost-cutting, published by the UnitedHealth Center for Health Reform & Modernization, which Stevens heads (and founded in January, 2009), to lead the charge in the United States for the British kill-'em-off campaign. (See www.unitedhealthgroup.com/reform).

UnitedHealth Group issued ecstatic letters of praise June 11 to Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), for his filing of the bill, Senior Navigation and Planning Act of 2009, to speed up death for seniors and others chronically ill. "UnitedHealth Group has a strong commitment to patient-centered end-of-life care," namely: take an aspirin, roll over and die.

Stevens also heads up the UnitedHealth Global Health program to promote Blair Nazi-medicine in other nations. He comes into these duties, after setting up and chairing a new division of UnitedHealth in Britain in 2004, "United Health UK" after Stevens left Blair and No. 10 Downing Street. Then in January, 2007, he went to Minnesota to become a top operative at UnitedHealth Group, the current flagship of world HMOs. UnitedHealth has 70 million American enrollees in its various plans, and reports over $80 billion annual revenue from U.S. operations, the largest of all managed care companies.

Small wonder they didn't want EIR anywhere near their Nazi gathering.
