UNITEDHEALTHCARE HARASSES DOCTORS!
Рет қаралды 14,541
3 жыл бұрынUnitedHealthcare and Optum are vile, evil institutions that simply don’t care for patients or their providers. Their only concern is preserving their bottom line, and they will resort to mafioso-style schemes to do so. That’s a damn fact.
They endlessly/needlessly harass doctors by requesting additional information for nearly every claim submitted and then deny that records were ever received when offices call to follow-up, creating an endless cat and mouse game. It’s a classic BS maneuver employed to delay payment for services already rendered.
Further, their “audits” are essentially white-collar mob-esque shakedowns, designed to break doctors into submission and surrender payment for services already administered (and in many cases also reviewed by UHC before any payment was even made). Sadly, paying off these corporate gangsters becomes the path of least resistance, as the legal fees required to fight them are oppressive and financially debilitating.
These deplorable practices are immoral, shameful, and downright criminal. Doctors, especially solo-practices and small groups, MUST speak out.
Enough is enough!

WOW a doctor with the COURAGE to SPEAK UP against United Healthcare! I applaud you for speaking up and sharing this! I wish more doctors took this approach instead of selling out to private equity.

My mom has UHC and I'm starting to hate this company. They are shameless, liars, don't care about the elderly with chronic medical conditions, deliberately frustrating their clients, i.e., they don't care about your healthcare needs! 😡😡😡😡😡

Hi . Agree as fellow doctor . We have to start a national campaign against United to get patients not to select them and Doctors to demand their correct and deserved pay . They actively try these illegal tactics not to pay legitimate bills. let me know what your thoughts are.

I’m so sorry that you’re going through this extortion. I have a few stories about United myself when my husband had lung cancer, trying to make us pay $10,000.00, them not paying lung specialist for a procedure saying the office didn’t get a referral. Five hours on the phone and I wouldn’t take no for an answer.

So happy I saw this! I just switched over to UnitedHealthCare, which began "coverage" of my meds beginning Jan 1st. Two weeks later, I go to CVS to pick up ALL 7 monthly prescriptions I take, and as of Jan 16th CVS and a host of other large franchise chain pharmacies have ALSO dripped UHC all together!!! FYI: I was on Amerihealth Caritas for 12 years, and NEVER had ANY problems whatsoever.

My mom sold her practice to optum and they absolutely are harassing her and creating an intimidating work environment to push her out of the practice she ran for 20 years. They have absolutely destroyed patient care and they treat her like a work dog. They are the absolute WORST

The entire country needs to listen to this man. Unbelievable

If they are still behaving that way United needs a class action lawsuit!

The latest thing United is now doing is that when they pay doctors they pay through optum pay (which is a subsidiary of Optum owned by United). And they charge 0.5% fee for making that payment!!

I hope someone gets a class action lawsuit against them. For what it's worth our hospital keeps every transmission receipt for anything sent to the insurance. Humana is another one!

Absolutely true about Optum & United Healthcare. We have to get rid of them. I know someone who works for Optum who use to be my partner. She is a crook, a liar, & unethical doctor. Report them to the Department of Insurance and Banking. We can’t let these insurers get away with it

Where are the politicians that we elect to protect us from these vultures? as a patient, paying UHC Plan N, a lot of money and they cover very little or nothing. They make it so complicated for the consumer that it's impossible to keep up with constant changes every year.

You are so right on! I agree with you. Now I am feeling guilty, I am on Medicare and guess who my secondary is with. Somehow these insurance companies need to be held accountable. I can’t even begin to imagine what the CEO, CFO and shareholders reap.

YES and AMEN! UHC is absolutely an evil institution that UNLAWFULLY DENIES care! We run into this all the time with any and all of our prosthetic patients with UHC. We get the same lies and the same run around of them "losing our notes". And what really pisses me off is when they use an amputee in one of their recent commercials. We have to fight for at least a year to get coverage for a basic prosthesis for our patients.

Thank you so much for speaking out! I’m a private Behavioral Health provider (mental health and substance use disorders) in Idaho. Although, I was born and raised in Bklyn, NY. Optum is the primary manage care organization for Medicaid clients in our area. Before Optum my small agency had a reasonable profit margin and a huge success rate in assisting our client to make excellent progress Our ability to profit allowed us to give more back to the sick and suffering in our community as well as provide our staff with decent pay raises, specialized trainings/continued education, health insurance, etc. Since Optum has monopolized our area I’ve had numerous silent strokes on both sides of my brain I contribute this sad reality to having to work 10, 12, and 15-hours a day to keep up with their admin demands. I’ve depleted my savings to keep our doors open, I’m unable to take proper care of my team, or provide clients with the fun activities we used to do. So much time and energy for very little money is spent on jumping through Optum’s hoops there little left for the primary purpose the client. As of lately our ability to make progress with those we serve have greatly diminished 😢 I hope I’m not penalized for speaking out bc I have in the past

I’ve seen this so many times billing for providers where the claim processing will get drawn out for so long for additional documentation, modifiers, prior auth, medical necessity, utilization, all kinds of different reasons and then by the time you think they’re about to accept and reimburse- after all of the appealing..it’ll be denied for timely filing. It’s all a game.. -_-

man, as an employee of an insurance company that works with UHC, I believe every word you say, I came to your video to understand what is really going on there, from the side of the medical provider.
