I am bombarded by phone and mail every year to switch health insurance carriers. Well after reading the following If I ever change it will not be to United Health Care.
And while it’s hard to quantify insurer performance, one telling measure is the rate of treatment denials — which for Kaiser, according to a recent report from the website ValuePenguin, is just 7% of claims.
But the industry average is 16%. The industry leader at 32% is UnitedHealthcare, the company Thompson led.
I have been lucky as I have been healthy and have not had serious accidents. Still, I would hate having a family member be in a situation where the health carrier denies critical medical attention.
