The massive insurer hired a lawfirm that specializes in defamation to force a public apology from a doctor in Texas following a post on social media.

UnitedHealthcare threatening to sue Dr. Elisabeth Potter MD for her Instagram video and the comments supporting Luigi it received. This video discussing the time she was interrupted in the middle of a patient’s surgery by a United representative to ask whether the patient really needed to stay overnight to recover.

    Amazing that UHC and their lawyer think they can fuck over a doctor, and then try to force the doctor to lie about UHC did to them.

      And the plural is part of why. They’ve always just been able to throw money at the problem.

      Yeah, what do they hope to get out of this? If they’re worried about damage to their brand/image then threatening a doctor is not helping.
