My United healthcare story [View all]

Decades ago I worked for a large local accounting firm. United healthcare denied my birth control prescription. Denied all birth control prescriptions. I was subsequently tasked to prepare a tax return for the local United executive. He was paid out a million plus dollar bonus the year I prepared his return. Lots of money now. More in the late 80s.

Yes hard to swallow knowing your firm was throwing business their way. United Healthcare was our only option.

I certainly can’t condone murder! But these health insurance companies? They have taken us all for a ride for years.
