UnitedHealth Group’s Optum subsidiary saw a lower operating margin in the second quarter due to more seniors getting care, a spike in demand for behavioral health services, and an influx of members with higher health needs.

Minnetonka, Minn.-based UnitedHealth Group’s Optum segment, which includes its provider arm, its pharmacy benefit manager, and its data and technology arm, reported an operating margin of 6.6% in the quarter ended June 30, compared with 7.3% in the prior-year period. Leaders said the decline was within its provider arm, Optum Health.
