TRS Health Plan Vendor Loses Final Appeal to Keep Certain Bid Info Secret from Competitor

United Health Care (UHC) may have won the right to manage the TRS-Care Medicare Advantage health plan for retirees, but it has lost its final legal battle seeking to keep certain info about its winning TRS bid from its bitter rival for the nation’s health insurance business.

That’s the gist of the outcome announced Friday (April 4) by the Texas Supreme Court (TSC) in denying — without further comment — UHC’s appeal in its fight to block TRS from providing Humana with all the information about the winning bid that the state attorney general’s office says must be released.
