SLQT 10-DAY DEADLINE ALERT: SelectQuote (SLQT) Faces Investor Lawsuit After DOJ Steps into Medicare Sales Probe – Hagens Berman

SLQT Investors with Losses Encouraged to Contact Hagens Berman

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SelectQuote Inc. (NYSE: SLQT), a digital insurance platform known for selling Medicare Advantage plans, is facing heightened legal scrutiny after the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) intervened in a whistleblower lawsuit alleging deceptive sales practices. The federal action triggered a sharp 19% drop in SelectQuote’s share price on May 1, 2025, and has now led to a securities class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of investors.

The suit, Pahlkotter v. SelectQuote Inc. et al., covers investors who purchased SelectQuote stock between September 9, 2020, and May 1, 2025, and alleges that the company misled the market about its business model and regulatory exposure.

Hagens Berman urges SelectQuote investors who suffered substantial losses to submit your losses now.

Allegations of Kickbacks and Misrepresentation

At the heart of the complaint are claims that SelectQuote misrepresented its Medicare Advantage sales practices. While the company publicly promoted its services as offering “unbiased advice” and “neutral plan comparisons,” the lawsuit asserts that SelectQuote:

• Steered customers toward plans from insurers offering the highest commissions.
• Accepted illegal kickbacks in exchange for preferential treatment.
• Violated federal statutes, including the False Claims Act

The DOJ’s complaint alleges that from 2016 through at least 2021, SelectQuote received tens of millions of dollars in improper payments and discriminated against less profitable customers by directing them away from lower-margin plans.

Market Fallout and Investor Impact

The DOJ’s involvement sent shockwaves through the market, with SelectQuote’s stock plunging nearly 20% in a single day. Over the past six months, shares have declined more than 40%, reflecting investor concern over the company’s legal exposure and potential reputational damage.

The class-action lawsuit argues that SelectQuote’s public statements failed to disclose material risks tied to its sales practices, leading investors to overvalue the company’s growth prospects and revenue integrity.

Hagens Berman Investigates Alleged Revenue Manipulation

Shareholder rights firm Hagens Berman is investigating whether SelectQuote’s revenue was artificially inflated through deceptive conduct. Reed Kathrein, a partner at the firm, commented: “The DOJ’s intervention transforms this from a routine business dispute into a serious federal matter. We’re examining whether SelectQuote’s so-called ‘unbiased’ model was merely a façade for a kickback-driven sales engine.”
