“We are deeply saddened and shocked at the passing of our dear friend and colleague Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare. Brian was a highly respected colleague and friend to all who worked with him. We are working closely with the New York Police Department and ask for your patience and understanding during this difficult time. Our hearts go out to Brian’s family and all who were close to him.”
This time of year is an opportunity to reflect and give thanks for our family and friends, our health, and our neighbors and communities. We are grateful for how Optum team members give their time and talent in big and small ways throughout the year in the service of others. Serving people — both at work and in the communities where we live — is a fundamental part of who we are at Optum. Thank you for everything that you do to create a healthier world for all!

Prioritizing progress on this long-term goal will likely carry into the new year. Dive into our trend report to learn more. https://optum.co/4ztzbt

Optum is committed to making a lasting impact on the communities we serve. These programs will help empower patients and pharmacies, reduce health disparities and improve medication adherence.
At Optum Rx, we recognize the crucial role of pharmacists in caring for patients. This is why we continue to deliver programs that support independent pharmacies and the pharmacists our members count on. We have launched the Independent Pharmacy Network (IPN), which will be available to clients as an add-on to their current pharmacy network options and will provide independent pharmacies with increased reimbursement on generic and brand drugs. We are also expanding the Bridge to Health Baby program that launched in 2023 to more locations to connect even more pregnant women with critical resources, including diapers. Additionally, we have launched Bridge to Pharmacy Care, a solution that will connect members to transportation resources to and from the pharmacy if a need exists and Bridge to Wellness to support members with chronic illness, including diabetes. As an added benefit to operating at the top of their license, pharmacists will be reimbursed for successfully connecting patients to resources. It is vital that we continue expanding access to resources that address inequalities and close care gaps. Learn more about these programs and other ways that we are supporting pharmacists and working to provide quality care for our members. https://lnkd.in/eaweaJrV
