A recent UnitedHealth class action lawsuit claims that the health insurance company’s subsidiary refuses to pay for autism treatment. The mother of a 13-year-old claims that United Behavioral Health, a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group, wrongfully refused to pay for her child’s autism treatment. The healthcare insurance company allegedly enforces bans on applied behavior analysis – a form of autism treatment that helps patients build social skills and other applicable skills. This ban reportedly results in the company failing to provide payments under certain employee benefit plans.
