-: What I like
is our
mission,
'cause I believe in working for something
that's bigger than yourself.
And trust me, when I was first interviewing,
I didn't always want to get into healthcare and technology.
I wouldn't say, ooh, just get me
into the healthcare technology company, right?
But when I got there, I saw what the mission is
in terms of helping people live healthier lives,
and helping the healthcare system work better for everyone.
That's pretty important.
I was checking in to a hotel
when I was traveling on business,
and I had my UnitedHealth Group bag with me.
And
the gentleman that was behind me
was checking in to the hotel after me
was like, hey, UnitedHealth Group.
I worked with your company.
My wife actually had
cancer.
And
you guys were fantastic throughout the whole process.
We had to fly her out to a particular area
to get her her treatment,
and they even flew me out there.
You guys took care of my lodging.
The claims were being processed.
I didn't have to worry about any overhead.
And it was just such a pleasant joy,
and I'm happy to say that my wife is doing better.
And when you hear a story like that,
that's like wow.
The work I'm doing on that claim system, right,
it's important.
There's people out there,
and that there's a human on the other end
of the technology
that we're building.
