Cigna CEO David Cordani made $43.9 million in 2017, according to a federal securities filing. That amount reflects the stock awards and options that Cordani actually cashed out.
The big picture: Cordani was in the spotlight a lot last year. He broke off the health insurer's merger with Anthem after feuds plagued both sides. Cigna is suing Anthem for almost $15 billion "as a result of the failed merger process," and a trial for the case is scheduled for 2019.
A trail of red ink continues to stain Oscar Health Insurance. The startup lost $127 million on $229 million of revenue in 2017, according to newly filed financial documents. That equates to a somewhat higher net loss margin compared with Oscar's $205 million loss on $426 million of revenue in 2016.
Why it matters: Oscar, co-founded by Jared Kushner's brother, Josh, has raised more than $725 million in venture funding. But the company is still a small fish in the health insurance ocean, has failed to price its premiums correctly, and has struggled with bloated costs year after year.
