UnitedHealth Group and Amedisys extend $3.3B merger deadline due to regulatory challenges.

UnitedHealth Group and Amedisys have extended the deadline for their $3.3 billion merger due to regulatory challenges. The US Department of Justice and three states filed a lawsuit, arguing the deal would harm competition in home health services. The new deadline is set for 10 business days after a court ruling or December 31, 2025. The agreement includes a $275 million breakup fee, which could rise to $325 million if certain divestiture milestones are not met.
