Not hard.
From the article:
All large Medicare Advantage players, which also include CVS and Humana, have had to balance the increase in utilization, along with lowered payments, while adjusting to a different type of payment model being phased in by next year. All the moving parts have made it hard for the insurers to predict their costs, resulting in headwinds for the past year.
They still are still denying all the time.
