What challenges is UnitedHealthcare currently facing?
This is Scott Becker with the Becker Private Equity and Business Podcast. Today's discussion is UnitedHealthcare and the challenges at UnitedHealthcare. So today looks like another bad day for UnitedHealthcare, down about 8.5% free market, a really challenging spot.
What impact did the CEO's resignation have on UnitedHealthcare?
recently an announcement that the Department of Justice is launching an investigation into their Medicare Advantage program and potential allegations of fraud. Next up on UnitedHealthcare, their stock dropped about 20% on Tuesday as their CEO, Andrew Witte, abruptly resigned. Always bad news. They also decided that they wouldn't be giving guidance for this year going forward, at least at this point, and that always freaks the markets out. So what you see so far, UnitedHealthcare down 20% this week, down 40% year to date, and likely to drop another 8% to 10% today. That's what we're watching with UnitedHealthcare. Thank you for listening to the Becker Private Equity and Business Podcast. Thank you very, very much.
