    Any attorneys willing to weigh in, hypothetically, about if BlackRock wins, whether this would open them up to suits from UHG benefit members?

    My thinking is if BlackRock wins and UHG goes back their old denying claims ways, could a patient who doesn’t get necessary care OR family members if they die due to a denial sue BlackRock with an argument to damage and harm from BlackRock’s actions?

      If BR wins, it just means that you cannot lie about your earnings targets. UH is getting sued not because they earned less, they are getting sued because they did not disclose their actions would impact the earnings target.

        I’m unclear on what you’re asking. Are you asking what’s the point of suing BlackRock?
