I have insurance from United thru my years of service to a large southern state. They are incessant about trying to set up a "free in home health check up." I always decline by saying my doctor is just a few miles away and super convenient. That does not deter them. They are also overly pushy about sending kits for a stool sample. I just put them in file 13.
I view the home visits as a scouting missions for nefarious reasons. I view the stool samples as vain attempts to get DNA and sell to highest multiples of bidders. In short, when the gov't or pharma offer ANYTHING free, it is regarded as a red flag warning. Neither entity has a shred of credibility in my book. Lastly, isn't this the very thing that HIPPA laws are supposed to protect us from? Who dropped the ball on that United Health Care?
I am dealing with this very same thing. My friend is older, retired from the state of Nevada. “Home health” is constantly sending dna mouth swabs and insisting that she has a home visit. She refuses and they won’t let up. Very sketchy.
