From Talkocast Studios comes "Delay, Deny, Depose" - an investigation into the December 4th assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. What began as a precisely planned murder outside the New York Hilton Midtown - complete with shell casings inscribed with a haunting message - has exposed the dark intersection of artificial intelligence, corporate healthcare, and human desperation.
Since the mid-1990s, insurance companies transformed claims departments from service centers into profit machines through a devastating strategy: delay investigating claims, deny payment, and defend denials in court. Through exclusive whistleblower testimony and internal documents, this episode reveals how UnitedHealthcare's $281 billion empire was built on systematic denial training and aggressive profit strategies.
As Senate investigations uncover shocking denial rates and doctors report spending more time fighting insurers than treating patients, this episode exposes the human cost of turning healthcare claims into corporate profit centers.
