    UnitedHealth Group曾凭借垂直整合的商业模式在医疗行业占据主导地位,但随着医疗成本上升、监管收紧及政治压力加大,这一模式正面临严峻考验。多年来,UnitedHealth Group始终领跑医疗健康行业,这家垂直整合的行业巨头不仅掌控保险公司、医师网络、药房资源,更拥有贯通各环节的软件系统。凭借这一独特架构,该公司长期占据市场主导地位,实现超行业水平的增长。然而当下,这套曾令UnitedHealth所向披靡的商业模式正逐渐成为负担。随着医疗成本激增、监管持续收紧、政治审查不断加码,昔日的整合优势正转化为系统性风险。今年以来,该公司股价下跌近40%,首席执行官安德鲁·威蒂(Andrew Witty)也已离职。这种曾被视作医疗行业未来方向、引发同行争相效仿的商业模式正遭遇最严峻挑战。Copyright ©2025 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
