✦ UnitedHealth Group will reprocess all of its commercial claims for COVID-19 vaccine administration after a federal investigation found the integrated health care giant paid providers less than 40% of the Medicare reimbursement rate for administering inoculations. Sen. Bob Casey, Jr. (D-Pa.), chair of the special committee on aging, wrote in a letter to UnitedHealth that it must inform the committee of the number of claims it expects to reprocess by Nov. 5. UnitedHealth will owe about $15 million for every 1 million claims it reprocesses, according to press reports.
