UnitedHealth Group 's (UNH) quality quarterly results Friday are a good sign for the broader health-care landscape, CNBC's Jim Cramer said. UnitedHealth "is a key component in the health-care universe, and … there will be a plethora of stocks that will trade well off this," Cramer said on "Squawk on the Street." Cramer's Charitable Trust, the portfolio used by the CNBC Investing Club, owns Humana shares. The company's past comments had major ripple effects for health-care stocks, dragging down fellow insurers — such as Humana — while boosting shares of many medical device makers. Including Friday's gains, UNH shares turned slightly positive year to date.

But whether it's time to back up the truck and stock up on cheap dividend payers will depend on a range of factors, including risk appetite and style. Notable constituents include Altria Group, which has an 8.3% dividend yield, and Verizon , which touts a yield exceeding 7%. This would include the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM) , which has a total return of about -1.6% this year, and the WisdomTree U.S. Total Dividend ETF (DTD) , with a total return of 2.5%. VIG, for instance, has a total return of 6% this year, but offers a 30-day SEC yield of 1.82%. Whether it's time to snap up these dividend payers will also depend on your risk appetite and your timeline.
