This excerpt taken from the UNH 10-Q filed May 7, 2009.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the consolidated accounts of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated and its subsidiaries (referred to herein as the “Company”) and reflect normal recurring adjustments needed to present the financial results for these interim periods fairly. The year end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. In accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Company has omitted certain footnote disclosures that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in its annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements. Read together with the disclosures below, the Company believes the interim financial statements are presented fairly. However, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read together with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2008 as filed with the SEC (2008 10-K).

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. The Company has eliminated intercompany balances and transactions.

Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” in the following refers to UnitedHealth Group Incorporated and its subsidiaries.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments needed to present the financial results for these interim periods fairly. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

This excerpt taken from the UNH 8-K filed Apr 18, 2006.

Basis of Presentation

The Company began providing Medicare Part D prescription drug insurance coverage on January 1, 2006. As a result of the Medicare Part D benefit design, the Company incurs benefit costs unevenly during the contract year with a disproportionate amount of claims incurred in the first half of the annual contract year.

On a full year basis, management estimates that Medicare Part D will generate a 3% plus operating margin, however, as a result of the benefit design, Medicare Part D revenues of approximately $1.6 billion generated a negative operating margin of approximately 7% during the first quarter of 2006.

The “Part D Normalized” results have been presented to enhance comparability with 2005 quarterly results. The “Part D Normalized” results assume that full year Medicare Part D benefit costs are recognized based on actuarially projected utilization over the contract year. Accordingly, “Part D Normalized” results for the first quarter of 2006 include a pro rata share of management’s estimate of full year 2006 Medicare Part D benefit costs relating to beneficiaries as of March 31, 2006.

“Part D Normalized” results are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings or diluted net earnings per share prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Page 9 through page 11 of these financial schedules provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures.
