UnitedHealth Group posted second-quarter earnings that blew past estimates and raised its full-year profit outlook, as the company better handles high medical costs and uses AI to help streamline operations. The nation’s largest private insurer said it expects 2026 adjusted earnings of $19.50 to $20 per share, up from a previous outlook of more than $18.25 per share. The healthcare giant is working to stabilize margins by shrinking membership, exiting unprofitable contracts and pouring $1.5 billion into artificial intelligence to streamline operations.
