Review

Hi Kate, I just made a few small edits on your article. I think you have a good structure and a very neutral tone overall. Maybe you could add a photo of their logo if you can get it up without licensing issues? -Glutenffrida (talk) 15:16, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kate, looking good, I made a few small tweaks and recommend:

as you mentioned, adding their logo;
adding categories;
the "Organizational Structure & Acquisition Timeline" section smells a little jargony/promotional. Unfortunately, I can't recommend anything specific, but I wanted to give you a heads-up given people tend to be sensitive to that. -Reagle (talk) 21:28, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Hello! My name is Barbara and I work for UnitedHealth Group. I'm here on Wikipedia to submit edit requests and suggest improvements to articles related to the company. I've been working with editors at Talk:UnitedHealth Group, but in this case I'd like to submit a request to add information to the infobox for our Optum subsidiary.

Addition Revenues

Would editors consider adding revenue information as stated in our 2023 10-K? Following is the addition I’m proposing:

Revenue $226.6 billion (2023)

Addition Optum CEO

Per UnitedHealth Group Heather Cianfrocco has been appointed CEO of Optum. Following is the addition I’m proposing to the Key people section in the infobox:

Heather Cianfrocco (CEO, Optum)

Thank you for making these updates to the Optum infobox! Barbara at UHG (talk) 20:29, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A recent request I submitted to add Heather Cianfrocco, CEO, to the infobox in this article was completed. I would now like to request that Heather also be added to the Leadership listing in the History section. Following is the update I am proposing:

Done though note that this entire section format is kind of a mess and it would be better rewritten to remove the WP:PROSELINE. Rusalkii (talk) 23:28, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
