Following the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, the company has faced backlash and accusations regarding its practices. In response to doctor Elisabeth Potter's social media claims about care delays, UnitedHealthcare has employed the defamation law firm Clare Locke to address her statements, asserting they're false. Potter's legal representative argues that the statements are accurate and have legal backing. While UnitedHealthcare attempts to manage its public image through legal action, the overall sentiment against the healthcare industry appears strong and resistant to corporate rebuttal.
The company has hired defamation boutique law firm Clare Locke, according to reporting by Bloomberg Law. The firm has already sent a demand letter to a doctor that is using her social media platform to speak out against the company.
Underwood, of the law firm Nix Patterson, said Potter's statements about the insurer were truthful. "Dr. Potter will not be silenced by UnitedHealthcare's attempts to threaten and harass her," Underwood said.
