If you have a health insurance policy through United Health Care they have a service for house calls. BUT have outsourced to a company that at best is unscrupulous and  annoyimg. I am dropping UHC as soon as I can because of this and other questionable practices. I'm shocked that AARP is involved with them. Block this number.

These calls are constant/never ending. I do not want their house calls nor their Walmart gift cards.  All we really need is to get no hassle about paying the legit medical bills.  Would never agree to having a stranger come into my home to evaluate me.  The doctor(s) do that.  As another person stated, we are old -- not stupid.  Contrary to popular belief, many of us do quite well managing our affairs and are not yet senile.

Did a reverse lookup and found this number was flagged for "Scam or Fraud". You would think a reputable company like UnitedHealthcare would know better.

it's United Healthcare Housecalls - not spam -are you or relative on UNited Health Care and your # is down as a contact

Rec'd a call and a message to call them back at 8663676309 .. Which according to the web is a Mercedes Dealer in Ohio. BS.

Calls and doesn't leave a message the majority of the time.  Caller ID shows up today as "UNTDHEALTHCARE".  United Healthcare (?).  One day they did leave a message and said if you want to get your extra large house clothes to please call back this number and then for the hearing impaired to please call back a different number.  Is this a joke or what?

United Healthcare has several totally useless services. This is one of them. Housecalls is really idiotic. Why would I want someone I don't know coming to my house to decide whether my physician made the right call about my medication / treatments? I just put them on reject on my phone. They leave voicemails which I immediately delete.

Do not call

United Health Care has called 17 times to remind me to get a flu shot.  I already had the shot Oct 2nd and they have paid for it.  Grrrrrrrr!  Now I have 23 blocked numbers from UHC.

They use this is house calls and ask you to call them.  They have a foreign accent.

Want to STOP these annoying calls now; thought there was a directory of Do Not Call calls but apparently there are loop holes galore; NO ONE NEEDS OR WANTS THIS ANNOYANCE! amen.

You can make a complaint.  This is some sort of a scam.   Make the complaint.  If no one makes complaints then nothing is going to be done.

Nurse Practitioner Scheme

This appears to be to be basically an attempt to extract money out of  Medicare/Medicaid by signing up those on these programs for still another unneeded service.   That is, an attempt by insurance companies to increase their income be creating more services and thus more income for the insurance company.  That’s the only purpose I can think of.  Supposedly a nurse practitioner will be better at coding treatments than the regular doctor.  This may be all quite legal.

Involves nurse practitioners but may involve other medical professionals as well.

This program is targeting the elderly.  Basically trying to scare them into signing up for this service.

However, there is a lot of just plain ordinary cold-call scamming  going on as well.  Fishing expeditions trying to get information on Medicare patients.

If you have an insurance card, and you receive calls from people pushing home nurse practitioner visits, call the number on the back of the insurance card.  Check the number out that is calling you.

I do have a nurse and a physical therapist who comes out to the house, every once in a while.  But this as authorized in person to me by my primary care physician.  It was not done by a cold call.

Absolutely do NOT agree to any sort of home care in the absence of a consultation with your own primary care physician.  

Most people on Medicare (including myself) see a primary care physician once every three or four months for a general check up.

There is no need for a home care visit by a nurse practitioner in that kind of situation, unless recommended by the primary care physician.

But as I say, consult your primary care physician about any kind of home care.

Some man in India or Pakistan calling to say they need to come to my home for a medical physical.  I told them NO, give me the address of a medical facility to do this.  He said they have to come to your home.  I told him, No, they do not.  I do not let people I don't know into my home.  They keep calling and I keep ignoring them.

These calls are annoying, and unacceptable. I have a doctor for medical concerns. Why in the world would I let a
stranger into my home?

Call all the time

I am a policyholder, but United Health Care did NOT identify this as a UHC call in any way shape or form.
A non-native speaker of English left a voicemail message that was unintelligible except for the phone number to call back.
Blocked, as I do with any unwanted telemarketing calls.

just pick up but no sound, must be scam.

They have now called 3 times in the 3 months I have been covered by UHC.  Told them I am not interested in having a unknown person come to my home and ask me personal medical information.  May work well for some but not me. I again told them I am
Not interested and to stop calling.

I have UHC also and have recd mail from them re health accessment with my PRIMARY DOCTOR, not house calls. Suspect this is a phishing expedition. Be wary. Me thinks SCAM.
