According to the media reports, the U.S. Department of Justice's healthcare fraud unit is investigating UnitedHealth's Medicare Advantage business practices. UnitedHealth has responded by affirming its confidence in the integrity of the program. UnitedHealth is reportedly among Persistent Systems' top five clients, reportedly accounting for an over $100 million business relationship. However, the exact revenue exposure of Persistent Systems to UnitedHealth remains unclear. The news comes on the heels of additional turbulence at UnitedHealth. On Tuesday (13 May), the company announced that CEO Andrew Witty would step down for personal reasons. Chairman Stephen Hemsley, who previously served as CEO from 2006 to 2017, has returned to the role, effective immediately. Witty will stay on as a senior adviser. UnitedHealth cut its 2025 forecast last month following its first quarterly earnings miss in more than a decade. On Tuesday (13 May) the company withdrew that financial forecast entirely, saying that medical costs from new Medicare Advantage members were higher than expected. UnitedHealth, which serves over 50 million Americans, is the largest provider of Medicare Advantage plans, with more than 8 million enrollees. It also operates a major pharmacy benefit manager and the Optum healthcare services division.
