ARTICLE UnitedHealthcare to Acquire Health Net's Northeast Licenses and Rights to Renew Membership

Today, UnitedHealthcare signed a definitive agreement to acquire Health Net of the Northeast's licensed subsidiaries and obtain rights to renew membership in Connecticut, New York and New Jersey. This is a compelling opportunity for UnitedHealthcare to grow in the Northeast and, once the transaction is closed, we will begin introducing Health Net's members in this region to UnitedHealthcare and all that we have to offer.


For Health Net's Northeast customers and members, UnitedHealthcare broadens choice and access to quality care with one of the largest local and national networks, robust clinical programs and a full range of affordable products. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approvals and other closing conditions, is expected to close within twelve months.
