I guess nobody really likes the $660 M profit outlined on Medicare products which has a 5 year lifecycle so about $130M per year in profit, from Medicare alone.

Add IFP of $50M +

Medicare enrollees will be 400k by January and 500k+ by end of next year....

I'm not sure what is going on here they are having a record quarter on Medicare and non Medicare...probably going to do 100K Medicare and 100K non Medicare enrolless. Medicare is accelerating on strategy here. Non Medicare is going up again after 3 years of declines because EHTH can now process subsidized healthcare.gov enrollees. No enrollee will be buying from healthcare.gov in the future as you can get the same plan here and add a gap or secondary plan to cover deductibles for a few dollars which healthcare.gov does not sell.

commission on non medicare here is exploding as well as cross sell is high because many enroll for $0 or $50 bucks with a subsidy and they buy dental, gap, life, etc through ehth.

should be up near $40 today...
