Changes in US stocks | UNH.US (UNH.US) fell nearly 5% at the beginning of the session, and it is rumored that shares in some of its Optum Health businesses will be sold to TPG

The Zhitong Finance App learned that on Wednesday, United Health (UNHUS) fell nearly 5% at the beginning of the session, the biggest intraday decline since January 27, and is now reported at $383.54. According to the news, it is reported that UnitedHealth sold part of its business interests in Optum Health in Florida to private equity firm TPG. UnitedHealth has been restructuring Optum Health's business since last year, when the division's profits fell sharply and profit margins turned negative last year due to rising medical costs and changes in federal payment policies.

The report said that this cooperation covers WellMed clinics under Optum, which mainly provide medical services for the elderly. UnitedHealth opens approximately 15 clinics in Florida each year, and this partnership will enable the business to invest and expand more quickly.
