We're insured through AARP United Healthcare. Neither of us has ever had a denial of service or issuewith any claim, unlike every other company we've been insured with.

AARP been cancelled! If we all cancel they may get the message!

AARP is the NRA for the healthcare insurance and even personal type insurance industries.

It drives up the cost of insurance premiums for products in and out of the organization’s promoted business

It isn’t seniors citizens friend. It will claim that it is nonpartisan. Just follow the money

I have wondered if AARP was really working for us. Glad to say my teacher's pension group coverage is not UHC.

friskiedgrrl.bsky.social•60 days ago

That sucks!

VERY disappointing this. I’ve hesitated to join and now I’m glad.

AARP is a scam.

My mom had United Healthcare through AARP. She was allowed $500 per year for prescriptions. Her Eliquis medication used that up in one month. Disgusting.

AARP began as the Grey Panthers
They got COLAs for SSI and Medicare, yes they set up the program that they can now ripe off

rfazoo.bsky.social•60 days ago

AARP hasn’t been for retirees and the elderly for years.! Just have their hands out for the money.

thestampedehero.bsky.social•60 days ago

Thanks~

7leaguebootdisk.bsky.social•60 days ago

They've always been an insurance front organization, from day one.

focused4usa.bsky.social•60 days ago

I despise AARP. They’re as corrupt as UHC. Maybe more. Preying on the elderly.

clh71.bsky.social•60 days ago

That's why none of their endorsements are good, life insurance, auto, etc.

ayesart80.bsky.social•60 days ago

Another loser they back is the Hartford auto insurance. We joined and after a two year membership they raised their rates!

mycrazywrld23.bsky.social•60 days ago

My father did the AARP for auto insurance and he was getting bent over! I'm kind of finding that AARP is not such the advocate for seniors as a capitalist to take all of our money!

ditsy.bsky.social•60 days ago

The AARP doesn’t advocate for anyone. They surrendered seniors to the wolves a decade or more ago. They’re just another barnacle now.

1/2 AARP also steers seniors to jump on the statin-cholesterol lowering drug train. I'd like to see the figures for the increases in dementia & Alzheimers since statins started being pushed. Brains need cholesterol & elderly folks need it, too.

patchygroundfog.bsky.social•60 days ago

No, statins do not prevent heart attacks or strokes. 2/2

jennjvn.bsky.social•60 days ago

Statins *lower* cholesterol, not eliminate it completely. No one has zero cholesterol and that's never been a health goal.

patchygroundfog.bsky.social•60 days ago

Actually, some drs. do tell their patients that zero is their goal. There are idiot drs. out there. Did I say statins eliminate cholesterol? I don't think so. 🤷🏼‍♀️

AARP refuses to call out the Republican agenda of gutting the social safety net, in the interest of appearing non-partisan.
So say hello to oblivion, money-grubbing fence-straddlers.

dedeexploringpnw.bsky.social•60 days ago

The AARP scams seniors. I’d never join!

ibsteve.bsky.social•60 days ago

Saw this comment on a thread somewhere. Summed it up pretty good for me.
"AARP
It's an insurance company pretending to be a senior citizen welfare agency."

robertmewller.bsky.social•60 days ago

United Healthcare has been taking a bit of a hit lately? 😉

boudiccamic.bsky.social•60 days ago

AARP also does auto & home insurance through Hartford. Hartford is a horrible insurance company.

nosotros-sabemos.bsky.social•61 days ago

That's why they have open enrollments, so you can shop for something different. Start with the Medicare sites. They save you time and money through choices that work in your region. We dropped UHC this enrollment.

phds2.bsky.social•61 days ago

Hi, I am not talking about United Healthcare. We already established it has the highest rejection rates in the industry. My main point is about AARP. It is supposed to be a non profit senior advocacy organization. However, it is a shill for UHC!

nosotros-sabemos.bsky.social•61 days ago

Yep. That's why my husband and I went to the Social Security-Medicare site to see what's new about everything. UHC through AARP changed us to PPOs and now that won't do Part D for my husband without tripling in cost, so we are HMO, me through Kaiser and he through WellCare. Less $$

bittiegirldonna.bsky.social•60 days ago

Took me about 5 minutes to want nothing to do with them. Scammers
