IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS

PATIENTS WITH UNITED HEALTHCARE

We are closely monitoring the contract negotiations between UHC and HHC as our current contract expires on 3/31/25. Should an agreement be reached between the two parties there is no issues with treatment at our office, however if the parties fail to reach a new contract by April 1, 2025 all UHC, UHC Medicare Advantage and Oxford patients will need to decide whether to pay for the visit out of pocket at the time of service, change your insurance to a different carrier or seek care from a new in-network provider.

Please reach out to our billing department for further clarification.
