Learning About Golden Rule

Golden Rule is a part of the UnitedHealthcare family, along with PacifiCare. All together they make up one of the largest insurance companies in America.

Their care provider networks include thousands of doctors, hospitals, specialists, and clinics across the country.

Golden Rule is also an important innovator in the healthcare industry. They pioneered the Medical Savings Account, which paved the way for the successful Health Savings Account.

The Health Savings Account allows members to save tax-free money for their health expenses. They are also coupled with consumer-driven high-deductible health plans, which feature catastrophic coverage and lower monthly premiums than most plans.

Golden Rule's History

Golden Rule was founded in 1940 as a family business in the home of Michael Andrew and his wife, Mary Frances. Then in 1948, their son, Pat joined the team establishing a sales agency for the budding insurance company.

As their business expanded, the small home in Lawrenceville, Illinois just wasn't big enough. They moved into an office in Lawrenceville's town square in 1961.

By 1970, they had over 150 employees and opened a new office in Indianapolis, Indiana. Now, Indianapolis is still where their main headquarters lives.
