Some benefit plans included under your Agreement may be subject to requirements found in other health care provider guides or manuals or to the supplements found in the second half of this guide.
This section provides information about some of the most common UnitedHealthcare products. Your Agreement may use “benefit contract types,” “benefit plan types” or a similar term to refer to our products.
Visit uhcprovider.com/plans for more information about our products and Individual Exchange benefit plans offered by state.
If a member presents a health plan ID card with a product name you are not familiar with, use UnitedHealthcare’s Provider Portal tools to quickly find information on the plan. You may also call us at 1-877-842-3210 or Exchange Provider Services at 1-888-478-4760.
You are subject to the provisions of additional guides when providing covered services to a member of those benefit plans, as described in your Agreement and in the following table. We may make changes to health care provider guides, supplements and manuals that relate to protocol and payment policy changes.
We may change the location of a website, a benefit plan name, branding or the member health plan ID card. We inform you of those changes through one of our health care provider communications resources.
