. . One of the nations largest health insurers has agreed to pay $50 million in a settlement announced today after being accused of overcharging millions of Americans for health care. The New York attorney generals office launched an investigation after receiving hundreds of complaints about Oxford Insurance and its parent company, UnitedHealth Group, which claims to rely on independent research from across the health care industry to determine reimbursement rates. In actuality though, it relies on Ingenix, a research firm owned by UnitedHealth Group. New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo says Ingenix has been manipulating the numbers so insurance companies pay less. In a just-released report, he contends that Americans have been under-reimbursed to the tune of at least hundreds of millions of dollars. Although UnitedHealth Group and Oxford Insurance were the only entities investigated, other major insurers use Ingenix, including Aetna, CIGNA and WellPoint/Empire BlueCross BlueShield.
