NEW YORK, NY - (NewMediaWire) - July 10, 2024 - Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP (www.kaplanfox.com) reminds investors that a complaint has been filed on behalf of investors that purchased the common stock of UnitedHealth Group Inc.

According to the complaint, throughout the Class Period, UnitedHealth and the other defendants made materially false and misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose, that UnitedHealth never established proper firewalls between Optum and UnitedHealthcare.

On February 27, 2024, The Wall Street Journal reported that the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) had reopened an investigation into UnitedHealth.  The Wall Street Journal article states that “[d]uring their interviews, investigators have asked about issues including certain relationships between the company’s UnitedHealthcare insurance unit and its Optum health-services arm, which owns physician groups, among other assets.”

Following the news, UnitedHealth’s stock price fell $27.04 per share, more than 5%, over two trading days to close at $498.28 per share on February 28, 2024.
