I used to work at Utilization Review as an RN. United Healthcare is the one insurance company I tell my friends never to use for insurance coverage. They deny payments to providers all the time, in which providers have to spend time to fight the denials. They do that constantly. My department spent so much time fighting the denials. When my mother in law was in the ICU , United Healthcare denied the claim for the ICU , and it took about a year for the hospital to get paid. I am surprised that more hospitals have not dropped UHC, but maybe this is the start.
Open Enrollment is upcoming. Instead of dropping Scripps, I would look into a different insurance company.

A stated by Scripps, the two affected groups will only accept regular Medicare. No Advantage accepted from any company.
I think United Healthcare is owned or pushed by the AARP which I have zero use for. Aetna Medicare advantage has been superb and just cut their rates.
I've heard the same.
