Insurers have been hit by a one-two punch of natural disasters and lackluster financial markets, but rising premiums are bringing profits and surpluses. UnitedHealth's lower-than-expected medical costs help the company beat quarterly earnings estimates. CEO Andrew Witty says the company is leaning into value-based care, a big driver for Optum Health with its 30K+ doctors. $UNH continues to be a bellwether for the health care sector following Q3 earnings, according to Grey Ghost Advisors PE Investor Meghan Fitzgerald.
