United Health One

United health One which encompasses the individual health insurance products for United Health Care includes the Golden Rule health insurance products in the Eastern part of the country, and PacifiCare in the Western states.  United Health One is the name for all of these individual health insurance products.  United Health Care also just completed its purchase of Sierra Health Services a health insurance company offering individual health insurance products in many states.   All are available on our health insurance quote engine.   American Medical Security was also purchased by United Health Care but this company was dissolved though they continue to service the health insurance policies.  So if you have any of those three health insurance companies you are actually a UHC client.

Golden Rule Insurance Company, an UnitedHealthcare company based in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.A., has offered health insurance to individuals and families for more than 60 years. It offers a type of health insurance known as a health savings account (HSA), and was closely involved in the political discussions that led to the enactment of legislation that offered tax incentives to consumers who set up health savings accounts. In April 2007, Golden Rule launched HSAcenter.com

This website offers general, comprehensive information about HSAs so that consumers can better educate themselves about health savings accounts and how they work, but what is really interesting is that its political action committee has raised substantial funds for Republican politicians who support health savings accounts.

Golden Rule became a UnitedHealthcare company in 2003. UnitedHealthcare’s individual line of business, which includes Golden Rule, PacifiCare, American Medical Security (AMS), MAMSI, Oxford Health Plans and UnitedHealthcare administered by Golden Rule, currently offers PPO health insurance and HMO products to individuals and families in 40 states and the District of Columbia.

United Health One Health Insurance Plans

Nationally, the United Health One (Golden Rule) health insurance plans are very similar.  Their plans include the traditional plans called the Copay Select plans, their Health Savings Account plans, and their modified Plan 100/Plan 80′s aka their High Deductible plans.

United Health One offer the best prescription plan in the country (Aetna’s plan is also outstanding as they have an excellent mail order plan) and this plan is included in the Copay Plus series only.  Their high deductible plan and HSA plan are also very good with prescriptions but only after the deductible is met (which it usually is not as it is so darn high!)  These plans include a $15-20 charge for generics (prices vary state to state) and a $50 cost for name brand.  The name brand is after a $250 calendar year deductible, which goes quick as the price of pharmaceuticals in this country are outrageous.
