(Reuters) -UnitedHealth Group on Thursday named Tim Noel, the head of its Medicare business, to the top job at its health insurance business, a month after the unit’s former CEO Brian Thompson was killed.

The brazen killing of Thompson on Dec. 4 ignited a broad conversation about the frustrations of navigating the U.S. healthcare system.
