UnitedHealth lawsuit alleges former executives stole trade secrets to create rival firm

Minnesota health care entrepreneurs Ken Ehlert and Mark Pollman sold their research and development firm to UnitedHealth Group in 2017, joining the Minnesota behemoth as high-ranking executives.

The deal led to the commercial launch of a diabetes management tool called Level2 in early 2021.

But the relationship between United and Ehlert and Pollman soured, and they were terminated later that same year. The pair then sued United for allegedly reneging on compensation for Level2, a dispute that eventually went to arbitration.
