Do any of you guys know when, if ever we are suposed to receive those refunds from United Healthcare?
 
I had a recognized lose of $4822.00 and received a check for $536.00 in settlement a few weeks ago. I had submitted receipts for out if network Dr's. Bills for about$4900.00
 
When I called in January the said they hoped to have them out by the end of the first quarrel of 2012. They did say they processed over one million claims. As posted above I did get a check two or three weeks ago.

I do hope informer/overspeed gets one soon or we will never hear the end of it.....I got screwed on the failed ta now the line guys are fuc*ING me out if my settlement!

The end of the first quarrel, is that the second line in the sand?
 
Wasn't it suposed to be $500+ for each dependant on the plan? Thats was the word when everyone was filling out the paper work.

AMR has pretty much turned into ONE BIG SHAFT !!!
 
Here are a couple of comments and the answer

"From a previous post it was mentioned that $1.5 billion in claims dollars were submitted by us and physicians. Sooo...we have a $350,000,000 settlement pool minus $25,000,000 for lawyers and $7,900,000 to Berdon. From my perspective, United Healtcare is laughing all the way to the bank, since they have been released with no further litigation in this matter. My question is who approved the $350,000,000 pool which was woefully inadequate? Did UHC provide false $$$ amounts during the litigation?"

Here is the answer I received from Berdon Claims about the calculation:

After a reduction of 20%, but no more than $2,000.00, payout is calculated at $0.1391/dollar. All claims are subject to a pro rata distribution. As stated in the Notice on pages 4-5 (see attached), settlement proceeds will be reduced if the amount of claims filed exceeds the settlement fund. We received in excess of $1.5 billion in claims and as such, all settlement proceeds were reduced in accordance of the Plan of Allocation.


"received a check for $158.78 after submitting claims for over $9000. Calculating the time to obtain EOB's, check copies, credit card invoice copies,& filing Berdon's forms, basically worked out to a little over $4.00/hr. Should have known this was a "Vaseline" job from the beginning. Anyone know if/when Ted Kaczynski likely to be paroled?"
 
That is exactly right! My recognized loss was $4822.00 minus 20% divide the check if $536 by the remainder of the recognized loss and I come up with .1391 multiplier.
 
Status of the Litigation

Distribution in Progress
 
I filled the generic claims form out with 5 years of having UHC. I got my check today for $70.23. WOW....is all I have to say.
