I bet the majority of that purple is administrative roles. As in, not providing healthcare but deciding who's going to pay for it
I often wonder exactly how many office towers there are of people trying to deny health claims, and bickering over who pays how much.
I work right down the street from the office building of the biggest insurer in our state. The building looks like a damn prison.
And coding the systems that make decisions. And answering calls from members. And cleaning the building.
In fact, I'd go so far as to say that most of those towers aren't filled with decision makers, but instead mostly laborers with a small amount of those who make the evil decisions. Kind of like everything else.
no, I'm sure the majority is in poorly paid roles: janitors, food prep, entry level techs
Might be a lot people in sales too, and people tasked of getting the best offer on drugs and equipment and so on
