5 HMO Industry Stocks to Watch as Technology Expenses Take a Toll

The U.S. health insurance industry, referred to as Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), is expected to gain on the back of growing premiums and an expanding customer base, thanks to the well-performing Government business. The industry players have an active merger and acquisition (M&A) strategy in place. Though technology investments are made to boost operational efficiencies, these often escalate costs for industry players. Shortage of medical personnel across the United States is a concern. Despite the challenges, companies like UnitedHealth Group Incorporated, The Cigna Group, Humana Inc., Centene Corporation and Molina Healthcare, Inc. appear well-placed to counter the industry headwinds.
