The Biden administration is pressuring UnitedHealth to speed up payments following a cyberattack that has disrupted payments to providers.
"The attack has impacted payments to hospitals, physicians, pharmacists, and other health care providers across the country. Many of these providers are concerned about their ability to offer care in the absence of timely payments, but providers persist despite the need for numerous onerous workarounds and cash flow uncertainty," HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra and acting Labor Secretary Julie A. Su wrote in a joint letter.
Payments started being disrupted last month, and officials released a notification that a cybersecurity incident was to blame. In the days following, a Temporary Funding Assistance Program was launched to bridge the gap in short-term cash flow for health care providers.
