Are you certain it is not a Democrat from Austin that is at fault here ?
1. She risks bankruptcy if she lied and publicly defamed the company.
2. Why is she $5 million in debt ?
3. Why did she take out a $3.5 million loan ?

Now, after news of her alleged experience spread, the insurance company has hit back at Potter with a lengthy legal letter, asking her to 'correct your knowingly false, misleading and defamatory social media posts regarding UnitedHealthcare.'

The company vehemently denied Potter's claim that she was forced to step out of the surgery that day to take the call, and said that she would have never received a call if her office hadn't 'incorrectly ordered an inpatient hospital stay when you meant to order an outpatient observation stay.'

'Let us be clear: any suggestion that UnitedHealthcare asked you to step out of surgery, or that the call was urgent, is false. UnitedHealthcare did not ask - now would it ever expect - a physician to interrupt patient care to return a phone call about a notification error or any other insurance matter,' defamation law firm Clarke Locke LLP said in the letter on behalf of the insurer.

Although the company did not threaten legal action, Potter was told she 'can be held liable both for the damages stemming from your false statement, and from republication of your false statement,' adding that they want her to contact every outlet that reported her claims and let them know they 'were false.'
