Has United Health Group Turned Down Coverage for a Jaw Operation?

Jaw operations for crossbite, TMJ and other conditions are routinely denied by insurance companies, and they are often excluded explicitly in policies, even policies that are somewhat generous in most other kinds of care.  We ran into a situation where United Health excluded a jaw operation.  Apparently, paying to fix peoples' jaws will get in the way of paying the $66 million dollars in CEO compensation that CEO Stephen Hemsley received last year.  All-in-all, United Health paid more than a million dollars to at least 6 executives.  It's time for people who have not received coverage to band together to demonstrate against this company.

This company has a history of questionable ethics and alleged overcharging of customers.
