Healthcare and medical professionals in Minnesota are blowing the whistle on UnitedHealth Group, United Healthcare and Optum. An historic number of Minnesota physicians, nurses and behavioral health clinic owners are now speaking out against the company.
As their cries for help go ignored by Minnesota state senators, U.S. senators and the Minnesota Office of the Attorney General, they are taking their stories to the national press.
UnitedHealth Group, United Healthcare and Optum are now being investigated for White Collar Crimes by the U.S. Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Privacy, Technology, and the Law; Health and Human Services; the U.S. Senate Finance Committee and the United States of America Department of Justice. Several law firms have now also filed lawsuits for defrauding shareholders.
“We are used to them delivering quite a stable double digit growth. This is clearly a very high quality company, but to use the phrase for this coming quarter - it will probably be a bit messy,” said Gerrit Smit, head of global equity management at investment firm Stonehage Fleming.
The number of lawsuits by small medical clinic operators is snowballing by the day.
