Jonathan Kanter, the assistant attorney general, stated that unless the acquisition is blocked, UnitedHealth Group will extend its dominance in home health and hospice care, impacting seniors and their families.
UnitedHealth Group, with $372 billion in revenue, operates as the largest U.S. health insurer and continues to face scrutiny from regulators amidst the ongoing inquiry into its practices.
The Democratic attorneys general from Maryland, Illinois, New Jersey, and New York have joined the lawsuit against UnitedHealth, asserting the merger would threaten competition in health care.
In response to the lawsuit, Optum said the merger would enhance competition and innovation, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and increased access to quality care.
