UnitedHealth Group is demanding that healthcare providers repay the loans they received from the company following a cyberattack on its Change Healthcare unit last year. The company had lent approximately $9 billion to practices affected by the disruption.
In response to these demands, some medical practices are suing UnitedHealth, accusing the corporation of negligence related to the cyberattack. These lawsuits highlight the financial strain and frustration among providers impacted by the breach.
The situation creates negative public relations for UnitedHealth and could strain its relationships with healthcare providers. The legal challenges center on whether UnitedHealth is responsible for the financial fallout experienced by providers due to the cyberattack.
