Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On October 14, 2005, UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release discussing third quarter 2005 results. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99 and incorporated in this Item 2.02 by reference. The press release contains forward-looking statements regarding the Company.

To supplement our consolidated financial results as determined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the press release also discloses the following non-GAAP information which management believes provides useful information to investors:

Certain account balances and financial measures have been presented in this earnings release excluding our AARP business. Management believes these disclosures are meaningful since underwriting gains or losses related to the AARP business are recorded as an increase or decrease to a rate stabilization fund (RSF) and the effects of changes in balance sheet amounts associated with the AARP program accrue to the overall benefit of the AARP policyholders through the RSF balance. Although the Company is at risk for underwriting losses to the extent cumulative net losses exceed the balance in the RSF, the Company has not been required to fund any underwriting deficits to date and management believes the RSF balance is sufficient to cover potential future underwriting or other risks associated with the contract.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

UnitedHealth Group and its representatives may from time to time make written and oral forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (PSLRA), including statements in this report, in presentations, press releases (including the earnings release attached as Exhibit 99 to this report and the earnings conference call described in such earnings release), filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to shareholders and in meetings with analysts and investors. Generally the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. These statements may contain information about financial prospects, economic conditions, trends and unknown certainties. We caution that actual results could differ materially from those that management expects, depending on the outcome of certain factors. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include:

• increases in health care costs that are higher than we anticipated in establishing our premium rates, including increased consumption of or costs of medical services;

• heightened competition as a result of new entrants into our market, and consolidation of health care companies and suppliers;

• events that may negatively affect our contract with AARP;

• increased competition and other uncertainties resulting from changes in Medicare laws;

• increases in costs and other liabilities associated with increased litigation, legislative activity and government regulation and review of our industry;

• our ability to execute contracts on competitive terms with physicians, hospitals and other service providers;

• failure to maintain effective and efficient information systems, which could result in the loss of existing customers, difficulties in attracting new customers, difficulties in determining medical costs estimates and appropriate pricing, customer and physician and health care provider disputes, regulatory violations, increases in operating costs, or other adverse consequences;

• possible impairment of the value of our intangible assets if future results do not adequately support goodwill and intangible assets recorded for businesses that we acquire;

• costs associated with compliance with restrictions on patient privacy, including system changes, development of new administrative processes, and potential noncompliance by our business associates;

• misappropriation of our proprietary technology;

• potential effects of terrorism, including increased use of health care services, disruption of information and payment systems, and increased health care costs; and

• our anticipated acquisition of PacifiCare Health Systems, Inc. may be delayed or impeded as a result of required governmental consents, approval by PacifiCare’s stockholders, and other conditions to the merger, which may increase the costs of the merger and reduce anticipated benefits.

This list of important factors is not intended to be exhaustive. A further list and description of some of these risks and uncertainties can be found in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, including our annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Any or all forward-looking statements we make may turn out to be wrong. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Except to the extent otherwise required by federal securities laws, we do not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.

UNITEDHEALTH GROUP REPORTS RECORD

THIRD QUARTER NET EARNINGS OF $0.64 PER SHARE

• Revenues for Third Quarter Up 15% to More Than $11.3 Billion

• Services Extended to 500,000 New Consumers

• Operating Margin Expanded to 12.2%

• Earnings Per Share Increased 23%

• Operating Cash Flows of $1.2 Billion, Up 25%

• Return on Equity of 31%

MINNEAPOLIS (October 14, 2005) – UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH) achieved record results in the third quarter of 2005, reported Chairman and CEO William W. McGuire, M.D. “Third quarter results were driven by strong and diverse growth coupled with consistent operating performance across the spectrum of UnitedHealth Group businesses. Every reporting segment produced year-over-year and sequential quarterly advances in operating earnings, and our businesses in the aggregate brought services to yet another half a million Americans in the past three months.”

Quarterly Financial Performance
	Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2005			June 30, 2005			September 30, 2004
Revenues	$	11.32 billion		$	11.11 billion		$	9.86 billion
Earnings From Operations	$	1.38 billion		$	1.31 billion		$	1.09 billion
Operating Margin		12.2	%		11.8	%		11.1	%

UnitedHealth Group Highlights

• Third quarter earnings per share of $0.64 grew 23 percent from $0.52 in the third quarter of 2004, and improved 3 cents or 5 percent from the second quarter of 2005.

• Third quarter consolidated net earnings increased to $842 million, up $144 million or 21 percent year-over-year and $33 million or 4 percent on a sequential quarter basis.

• Consolidated revenues of $11.3 billion increased $1.5 billion or 15 percent year-over-year, and $211 million or 2 percent from the second quarter of 2005.

• Operating costs were 14.9 percent of revenues in the third quarter, compared to 15.1 percent in the third quarter of 2004 and 14.7 percent in the second quarter of 2005. The year-over-year decline reflects advances in quality and productivity, along with the benefits of an increase in business scale. The sequential quarterly increase reflects initial consumer education and operational readiness costs related to the national introduction of the Company’s new Medicare prescription drug plans.

• Earnings from operations increased to $1.4 billion in the third quarter, up $286 million or 26 percent over the prior year, and up $68 million or 5 percent sequentially.

• Consolidated third quarter operating margin improved to 12.2 percent from 11.1 percent in third quarter 2004 and 11.8 percent in second quarter 2005.

UnitedHealth Group Highlights – Continued

• Accounts receivable, excluding the AARP programs, were $528 million at September 30, 2005, and continued to represent less than 5 days sales outstanding.

• Medical costs payable, excluding the AARP programs, increased $259 million or 6 percent year-over-year, standing at $4.9 billion at September 30, 2005. Medical costs days payable was 64 days for the quarter.

• During the third quarter, the Company realized favorable development of $60 million in its estimates of medical costs incurred in 2004. Third quarter results also included $70 million in favorable development stemming from the first two quarters of 2005.

• The income tax rate in the third quarter of 2005 of 36 percent increased 50 basis points sequentially and two percentage points year-over-year, primarily due to shifts in the relative size of the business in higher tax states, especially in the northeastern United States.

• Cash flows from operations were $1.2 billion for the third quarter, up 25 percent year-over-year, and reached approximately $3.7 billion for the first nine months of 2005.

• Available cash on hand reached $470 million at September 30, 2005, as the Company began to set aside funds for debt redemption related to the proposed PacifiCare merger. The Company also repurchased 4 million shares in the third quarter, bringing year-to-date shares repurchased and capital deployed to 49 million shares and $2.3 billion, respectively.

• Third quarter 2005 annualized return on equity reached 31 percent.

• The United Health Foundation committed $10 million in the third quarter to fund disaster-related community needs.

Closing Comment

“Our efforts are directed at advancing quality, access, affordability and simplicity in health care systems – and doing so for a wide array of customers and markets,” stated Dr. McGuire. “We are pleased to see that pursuing better ways to organize health resources, apply technology and use data – all done through a diverse and responsible group of businesses – is producing positive results for all concerned parties.

“Our business outlook is favorable. The continued strategic and operating advances we are making, combined with strong organic growth now being realized as each of our businesses expands their market share, will drive positive performance into 2006. We now expect full year earnings of $2.48 per share in 2005, a 26 percent advance, and foresee further earnings per share growth in 2006 of 15 percent or more, prior to considering any per share contributions from the launch of our new prescription drug plans for seniors or the pending PacifiCare merger.”

Business Description – Health Care Services

The Health Care Services segment consists of the UnitedHealthcare, AmeriChoice and Ovations business units. UnitedHealthcare coordinates network-based health and well-being services on behalf of multistate mid-sized and local employers and for consumers. AmeriChoice facilitates and manages health care services for state Medicaid programs and their beneficiaries. Ovations delivers health and well-being services to Americans over the age of 50.

Quarterly Financial Performance
	Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2005			June 30, 2005			September 30, 2004
Revenues	$	9.95 billion		$	9.81 billion		$	8.71 billion
Earnings From Operations	$	976 million		$	944 million		$	763 million
Operating Margin		9.8	%		9.6	%		8.8	%

Key Developments for Health Care Services

• Revenues for Health Care Services of $10.0 billion grew $1.2 billion in the third quarter – a 14 percent year-over-year increase and a gain of $142 million or 1 percent sequentially.

• Third quarter Health Care Services operating earnings of $976 million increased $213 million or 28 percent year-over-year. On a sequential quarter basis, operating earnings increased $32 million or 3 percent, as improved performance from AmeriChoice and continued gains from business growth at UnitedHealthcare and Ovations more than offset increased marketing and administrative cost investments associated with introducing Medicare prescription drug plans at Ovations.

• Third quarter operating margin of 9.8 percent expanded 100 basis points year-over-year and 20 basis points sequentially.

Key Developments for Health Care Services – Continued

• Third quarter revenues of $6.8 billion for UnitedHealthcare increased $836 million or 14 percent year-over-year and $78 million or 1 percent sequentially.

• UnitedHealthcare served 11.4 million people as of September 30, 2005, an increase of 460,000 individuals year to date, including an increase of 265,000 individuals in the third quarter of 2005. Third quarter results were highlighted by strong internal growth of 135,000 people and supplemented by the September 19, 2005 acquisition of Neighborhood Health Partnership in Miami, Florida.

• UnitedHealthcare’s third quarter 2005 commercial medical care ratio of 78.0 percent compared favorably to the ratio of 78.6 percent in both the second quarter of 2005 and the third quarter of 2004.

• AmeriChoice third quarter revenues of $843 million increased $48 million or 6 percent year-over-year.

• AmeriChoice membership of approximately 1.2 million people is essentially flat year-over-year, as organic growth in people served was offset by a membership reduction related to its withdrawal from the Illinois market during the third quarter.

• Ovations reported revenues of $2.3 billion in the third quarter, up $358 million or 18 percent year-over-year and $65 million or 3 percent from second quarter 2005.

• Ovations increased its Medicare Advantage health plan enrollment by 20,000 people in the third quarter, bringing year-to-date growth to 45,000 people and the year-over-year increase to 60,000 people – a 19 percent gain.

• During the third quarter, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded its approval to Ovations to offer Medicare prescription drug plans across all 50 states and all U.S. territories.

• The lead drug plan offering from Ovations, the AARP MedicareRx plan, is priced below the market average price in 33 of the 34 designated program regions, qualifying the business to receive an estimated 650,000 seniors by direct federal assignment for January 1, 2006.

Business Description

Quarterly Financial Performance
	Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2005			June 30, 2005			September 30, 2004

Earnings From Operations	$	205 million		$	198 million		$	171 million

Key Developments

• Third quarter revenues of $969 million increased $127 million or 15 percent over third quarter 2004 and $7 million or 1 percent sequentially.

• Uniprise serves more than 10.5 million people in the national multilocation employer segment, having increased its membership by 630,000 people in the first nine months of 2005. The total number of people served declined by 35,000 in the third quarter, a 0.3 percent sequential decrease, due to employment attrition.

• Uniprise earnings from operations of $205 million grew $34 million or 20 percent year-over-year, as revenue expansion outpaced increases in operating costs. On a sequential quarter basis, earnings from operations improved $7 million or 4 percent, as the operating margin reached 21.2 percent, expanding 90 basis points year-over-year and 60 basis points from second quarter 2005.

Business Description

Specialized Care Services offers a comprehensive array of specialized benefits, networks, services and resources to help consumers improve their health and well-being.

Quarterly Financial Performance
	Three Months Ended

Earnings From Operations	$	148 million		$	139 million		$	124 million
Operating Margin		20.3	%		20.5	%		21.4	%

Key Developments

• Third quarter revenues rose to $728 million, up $148 million or 26 percent year-over-year, and up $50 million or 7 percent from the second quarter of 2005, driven by strong customer growth and business expansion across the portfolio of Specialized Care Services companies.

• In the third quarter, earnings from operations of $148 million increased $24 million or 19 percent year-over-year and $9 million or 6 percent sequentially.

• The Specialized Care Services operating margin of 20.3 percent decreased 110 basis points year-over-year and 20 basis points from the second quarter of 2005, as revenue gains from comparatively lower margin dental benefit products changed the overall mix of business for the segment.

Business Description

Key Developments

• The Ingenix contract revenue backlog grew 25 percent year-over-year, due to strong customer demand for software products that enable payers, employers and other intermediaries to obtain a detailed understanding of medical costs and trends, software tools that improve business operations for medical service providers, and consulting and outsourced services.

• Ingenix earnings from operations increased $15 million, or 44 percent year-over-year, and the operating margin increased to 23.9 percent, up 390 basis points from third quarter 2004, due to strong contribution margins on consulting services and software product sales, as well as focused operating cost disciplines across its businesses.
