Summary
This filing is an amendment (8-K/A) to a previous Current Report (8-K) filed by UnitedHealth Group Inc. (UNH) on February 11, 2009. The primary purpose of this amendment is to correct an error made by a filing agent regarding Exhibit 100 in the original filing. The company is re-furnishing Exhibit 100, which contains financial statements from its 2008 Form 10-K, now formatted in XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language). Investors are strongly advised that the XBRL-formatted financial data included in this report is unaudited and should not be relied upon for investment decisions. The company emphasizes that investors should continue to refer to the officially filed versions of the financial statements. This filing is primarily intended to test XBRL technology rather than to provide new or updated financial information.
