There have been many questions regarding UnitedHealthcare (UHC) and Houston Methodist after not reaching a settlement late last year.
I wanted to remind you that we have entered into an agreement that will allow Fort Bend ISD employees with UHC coverage to continue to access our hospitals and hospital employed physician offices at in-network benefit levels.
This agreement includes the Choice Premier Plan Tier 1 that was built exclusively around Houston Methodist and the other plans offered by Fort Bend ISD.
Also, please be aware that our Medicare Advantage patients who chose a plan that did not include Houston Methodist have until March 31 to change plans and stay with Houston Methodist.
We are in network with the following Medicare Advantage plans:
- Aetna
- Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas
- Cigna-HealthSpring
- Devoted
- Humana
- Oscar
- TexanPlus (WellCare)
