$3.49M UnitedHealthcare robocalls class action settlement

UnitedHealthcare agreed to a $3.49 million class action lawsuit settlement to resolve claims it violated the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by placing calls to consumers about its Optum HouseCalls program.

The UnitedHealthcare settlement benefits individuals who received a call from the company regarding its Optum HouseCalls program that used an artificial or prerecorded voice and was directed to a cellular telephone number not associated with a UnitedHealthcare member or planholder between Oct. 12, 2019, and Feb. 10, 2025.

According to the class action lawsuit, UnitedHealthcare violated the TCPA by placing calls to consumers about its Optum HouseCalls program without their consent. The plaintiffs in the case allegedly received multiple calls regarding the Optum HouseCalls program, even though they were not members of a UnitedHealthcare health plan.

Optum is a health services company that is part of UnitedHealth Group. Optum HouseCalls is a service that sends a health care professional to a member’s home to conduct an annual wellness visit.

UnitedHealthcare has not admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to pay $3.49 million to resolve the TCPA class action lawsuit.

Under the terms of the UnitedHealthcare settlement, class members can receive an equal share of the net settlement fund. Class members who submit a valid claim form are estimated to receive between $50 and $125. Exact payments will vary depending on the number of participating class members and the amount deducted for various costs.

The deadline for exclusion and objection is April 25, 2025.

The final approval hearing for the UnitedHealthcare robocalls settlement is scheduled for July 10, 2025.

To receive settlement benefits, class members must submit a valid claim form by April 25, 2025.
