Brian R. Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was shot and killed in Midtown Manhattan; the shooting is being investigated as a targeted killing with a still unidentified motive.
Thompson had a long career with UnitedHealthcare starting in 2004, culminating in his role as CEO which he assumed in April 2021 after overseeing a major division of government insurance.
Under Thompson's leadership, UnitedHealthcare became the largest provider of Medicare Advantage plans, capitalizing on the growing demand from aging baby boomers.
Despite being in New York for investors' meetings, the violent incident remains unresolved as the police search for the suspect visible in security footage.
