To boost profits, UnitedHeath cherry picked 109 counties to stop offering Medicare Advantage Plans in, affecting around 200,000 disabled and senior citizens.
Although not in this article, UnitedHealth is also exiting state Medicaid managed care plans, like MyCare Ohio, at the end of the year
It appears UnitedHealth is deliberately abandoning the sickest and poorest members it insures in order to boost its profits.
I'm not fan of Medicare Advantage Plans or managed Medicaid plans, but this is going to break long standing health care relationships as patients will have to navigate to a new plan and in-network providers of that new plan. #healthcare #unitedhealth #medicare #Medicaid #USPol
