The Justice Department, now headed by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, is reportedly investigating Medicare billing practices from UnitedHealth Group, a move which comes weeks after the assassination of Brian Thompson, the chief executive of subsidiary UnitedHealthcare.

Dear God, PLEASE protect her and others who are going after the DS for justice, and give them success.

Health insurance companies are highly regulated. There’s no special sauce that makes one company more profitable than others. Yet, that’s what UHC managed to do—increase their profit margin to a level significantly higher than their competitors.

Yea, they need to be investigated. They are taking money for a service then refusing to provide the service.
I think the article said it was the UnitedHealth provider group that was over billing CMS. This would not be the insurer group. Providers use coding schemes to maximize the billing amounts.

Looks like United got religion, Because of Luigi? I don’t think so.

During her swearing in one of the first individuals General Bondi acknowledged in the room was her pastor.
The company was also being investigated for insider trading and the names of several congresspeople came up.
This is looking more and more like a hit.
