UnitedHealth Group CEO Andrew Witty stated in a New York Times opinion piece that the U.S. healthcare system is 'flawed' and a 'patchwork built over decades.' He acknowledged public frustrations with the system.

In his first public remarks since the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, Witty emphasized the company's commitment to improving the healthcare environment for Americans. He called for increased transparency regarding the company's own coverage decisions.

Witty's comments signal a strategic shift in public messaging, recognizing the need for the healthcare system to be 'less confusing, less complex and less costly.' This public statement aims to address widespread concerns and foster a commitment to reform.
