(St. Paul, MN) -- Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison is demanding that UnitedHealth Group provide more assistance for healthcare providers and patients impacted by a recent cyber attack.
He joined 21 other state attorney generals who sent a letter yesterday to the Minnestonka-based healthcare giant.
They had concerns that United Health Group has been unfairly providing more help;p to clinics that it owns and operates.
The February cyberattack targeted UnitedHealth subsidiary, Change Healthcare.
The impact has been felt at pharmacy counters, where patients struggled to fill prescriptions, and at hospitals and clinics, where the system for filing claims for payment from health insurers has been seriously disrupted.
