ABC NEWS/GOOD MORNING AMERICA:
Senior With Fractured Back Battles UnitedHealthcare Oxford Health Insurance Company Medicare Advantage Plan
GMA segment shows UnitedHealthcare/Oxford's Medicare Advantage Plan would not authorize woman's care due to alleged age discrimination.
Audit shows Medicare Advantage providers with backlogs of unanswered patient complaints, plans that improperly denied claims, and concerns about marketing practices which do not follow government guidelines.
The Government should investigate the CEO and higher management of United
Healthcare like they did with the CEO of GM and Wall Street.
I really feel for these people. I worked for United Healthcare for over 10
years and let me tell you, it is the worse Insurance company to have, let
alone work for. They don’t treat their employees any better then they do Jo
blow off the street and they rip you off at every chance they get. Take it
from one with experience of being ripped off by them who knows and do you
know what….they could care less.
@R0YB0T thanks for reference, I always suspected these M’care Advantage
policies were just another way for insurance whores to screw people, it’s
like legalized theft!
Absolutely abhor United Health Care. They border on evil with their dirty
tricks. I had a simple doctor’s visit almost a YEAR ago and UHC continues
to find reasons not to pay for a lab. A LAB, for crying out loud. The
resources these people have spent over the course of 11 months trying not
to pay a $728 lab bill surely has exceed the amount of the bill itself.
Very unethical people.
When people have private insurance they pay for themself. Did ever think,
how much people pay in tax for u, so u can have Medicare?
@jerrywitaj Hey Jerry! we read that same report, but what you fail to
understand is that that number “2.2” is a number reported by the company.
Billions of dollars every year. Do the math!
Hey moron… The insurance companies operate on a 2.2 percent profit
margin, hardly the “money grubbing” people you like to portray them as, but
I’ll bet you didn’t know that. Also you dickhead, medicare denies coverage
more than all the private companies COMBINED. And do you somehow think in
your little pea brain that the government is going to do it better????? Its
only going to get WORSE.
Another example of greedy, money-grubby insurance companies. Don’t give up
your Medicare benefits. Believe it or not, Medicare, a GOVERMENT run
program is better than private, profit driven insurance that cares about
only ONE thing – making money.
Google: Medicare advantage windfall for private insurance companies Click
on the 1st non sponsored link from familiesusa. From the site: Today,
Medicare Advantage plans are paid more than ever… …This has resulted in
billions of taxpayer dollars being spent on private coverage without any of
the promised efficiency. Meanwhile, millions of seniors and people with
disabilities who rely on traditional Medicare are paying extra money out of
their own pockets to subsidize these plans.
those motherfuckers. i hate them. they make you fucking beg and precertify
for your meds too. a damn yeast pill needs precertification. I wish they
would all burn in hell
