EVERETT — Goodbye Everett Clinic, hello Optum.

The Everett Clinic and The Polyclinic in Seattle will be renamed Optum in April 2024, the clinics’ parent company since 2019 announced in an email to patients Monday.

Optum spokesperson Karrie Spitzer said changes to expect by April include “Optum branding on exterior signage, patient communication and new employee badges.” Optum also announced the launch of new clinics and services including online scheduling, on-demand video visits, and expanding the “care at-home program.”

“This is not the physician-owned Everett Clinic that I joined in 1996, but instead the disturbing evolution of the corporate-owned, profit-hungry entity I retired from in 2021,” Eileen de la Cruz, a former Everett Clinic physician, wrote in The Herald earlier this month.

1. Sliding into corporate healthcare.

[erronis]

2. And when they've finished wringing out your bucks in trying to keep you alive

then you can be part of the corporatization of long-term care and nursing homes.

Then when it's time to go, get your hospice care from Big Corp and your funeral from another (perhaps the same) Big Corp.

You won't have to worry about estate taxes for your offspring.

Oh, and obits have become quite a money-maker for the Corp media.

No wonder they want women to make as many babies as they can ---- long term profits!!!
