UnitedHealthcare is increasing security after Brian Thompson's killing, executive says

8. Personal Note

I know somebody who, if they were strapped to a polygraph machine, had his hand placed on every book of faith under the sun, and have Torquemada stare right him in the eye, will attest and swear unblinkingly and unwaveringly that AARP Medicare Advantage from United HealthCare KILLED his suffering mother.

A hospital administrator called the son on Friday at 1300 HRS to say that United Healthcare was going to stop the coverage for his terminally ill, immobile, and incontinent mother on Sunday. This gave the son less than 24 hours notice to find an affordable hospice with the weekend approaching. The costs of caring for his mother exceeded $40,000 per month and the family couldn't afford that out of pocket.

The son called UHC to make an appeal (which they recorded), but was ultimately denied. Needless to say, things did not go well for the family after that.

This family bought the smoothly-advertised package below "hook, line, and sinker" and paid the premiums (or allowed deductions to be made from their Medicare accounts) for decades.





When you visit someone elderly and you see an obscenity like this on anybody's desk, kitchen top, dining room table, or coffee table, do them a favor and throw it away forthwith. Similarly, if a ubiquitous UnitedHealthcare advertisement is airing on their TV, please change channels immediately.
