POWER OF ATTORNEY


The undersigned, Paul R. Garcia, hereby authorizes and designates
each of Dannette L. Smith, Kuai H. Leong and Faraz A. Choudhry,
or any of them, acting singly with full power of substitution (each,
an "attorney-in-fact"), to sign and file on the undersigned's behalf
the Form ID in order to obtain or manage EDGAR filing codes, and any
Forms 3, 4, 5 or 144 (including any amendments thereto) that the
undersigned may be required to file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission as a result of the undersigned's ownership of or transactions
in securities of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (the "Company") at any
date following the date hereof. The authority of each attorney-in-fact
under this Power of Attorney will continue until the undersigned is no
longer required to file Forms 3, 4, 5 and 144 with regard to the
undersigned's ownership of or transactions in securities of the Company,
unless earlier revoked in writing.  The undersigned hereby revokes all
previous powers of attorney to sign or file on the undersigned's behalf
any Forms 3, 4, 5 or 144 with regard to Company securities as of the
date hereof, except that if the undersigned has adopted any Rule 10b5-1
trading plan to transact in Company securities, any powers of attorney
the undersigned may have granted under the plan to sign or file on the
undersigned's behalf any Form 144 shall continue to be in full force and
effect in accordance with the terms of the plan. The undersigned acknowledges
that neither the Company nor an attorney-in-fact is assuming any of the
undersigned's responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 or Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933.
