UPDATE 2-Option Care Health says UnitedHealth hack may hit financials in near term

Homecare health services provider Option Care Health said on Thursday it has been affected by the cyberattack at UnitedHealth Group's Change Healthcare unit, and the hack could impact its near-term financial results. More than half of the company's claims for services rendered since the hack remain unprocessed, Option Care said in a regulatory filing. Option said it anticipates a hit to its cash flow and working capital due to the inability to process a number of claims, with inefficiencies in patient registration and billing also among factors that can affect the company.
