Wednesday, April 17, 12:33 PM The big surge in health care stocks earlier this month just prior to the government's decision on Medicare Advantage rates may have been due to an email to sent by a former top congressional aide who now happens to be an outside lobbyist for Humana (HUM -1.9%). The email, which is now subject to an SEC probe, was sent to a Washington investment-research firm and circulated to clients just minutes before the close of trading, saying that "credible sources" had told them a decision had been made to restore the payments. 4 Comments [Healthcare]
Friday, February 8, 2:42 PM Molina (MOH +9.2%) powers higher today after easily topping EPS estimates yesterday, but, while results were clearly strong, Deutsche's Scott Fidel wonders how far the company has gone to account for the impact of this year's intense flu session. "The one puzzling element... was that MOH only booked $5M of incremental costs for the flu relative to last year's quarter." Fidel says. This could put pressure on its Medical Loss Ratio in the coming quarter, "particularly since most of MOH's key markets were exposed to intense levels of flu related activity in either 4Q12 or 1Q13."

Monday, July 2, 2012, 5:28 PM Health care stocks had a mixed run after last week's monumental Supreme Court decision. Despite the run-up in select names, CRT Capital's Sheryl Skolnick thinks any upside to the decision is going to be short lived. Any benefits coming from less bad debt are likely to be offset by slower reimbursement growth and fiscal belt-tightening. Besides, the law's major provisions won't kick in until 2014, and Republicans have vowed to repeal the law the first chance they get. 1 Comment [Healthcare]
