Wendell Potter, a prominent health-care whistleblower and former Cigna executive, faces criticism for his advocacy of Medicare for All following the death of an industry CEO. Despite the backlash, he stands out as a critical voice against the practices of insurance companies. He remains an influential figure advocating for health-care reforms with a network of former insurance executives. Their shared goal is to challenge the role of for-profit insurers and push for change in a tumultuous political landscape, hoping to leverage current public outrage to create momentum for reform.
The attacks against Potter started just as soon - and bear all the hallmarks, he says, of remarkably similar spin operations he facilitated as a communications executive.
Potter has waged a relentless, sometimes lonely campaign against for-profit insurance companies through media appearances, books, a newsletter, and Capitol Hill lobbying.
