Surprise, surprise, they learned nothing from Thompson’s murder.

“We ultimately pay 98% of all claims that are for eligible members, when submitted in a timely manner with complete, non-duplicate information.”

Only after many of them appeal a denial. Which most people haven’t the time or energy to do.

Or in a “timely” manner.

Or without any errors.

In other words, that’s 98% of a much smaller subtotal.

And UHC is frankly hoping you will die before that second or third resubmitted claim winds its way through their “system”.

“A key point of dispute was the cost and production of a “versailles” tile pattern.”

A wry detail

They have discriminating tastes, which comes in handy in other aspects of their lives. It fits!

My dad was on UHC’s Medicare Advantage Plus plan. It’s been 5 months since he died & we’re still fighting to get his plan cancelled & receive reimbursement for the months they “assured” us the it was cancelled…and it wasn’t.

UHC’s leadership is unethical. Believe what you read about them.

The most (supposedly) richest Nation on Earth cannot provide decent healthcare?

It blows my mind it really does because how many people have to die before you get off your HUGE arses and do something. It is up to YOU people now.

Having lived in the US and gone through bankruptcy, to keep our daughter alive, I say move to China or maybe some places in Europe.

Thank the stars for us getting out 23yrs ago.

Maybe hold back your holier than thou statements? You left the US so have no idea what’s being done here. The solutions are complicated and there is no country in the world that wants 300 million Americans to just “move there” as a solution.

Did you just arrive here from Twitter?

I know exactly what is going on in the USA and Europe.

As I got proficient in killing off old sick people, I aspired to kill off all ages of sick people which was made possible by a person who experienced sickness who killed my boss. Right.

"“I am also humbled because this path was set by our friend, BT [Brian Thompson], who wanted to be a part of the solutions we are creating,” Noel wrote."

I'm sure he believes this bullshit. This is how the consent get manufactured - the people who actually believe this crap are the ones who get promoted, and do the hiring.

Have any seen claims published regarding the last (assassinated) United Healthcare CEO having been scheduled to testify in relation to insider trading, possibly involving certain politicians? I saw this mentioned in passing several weeks back and now can't find where.
