United Healthcare community plan has dropped coverage from Lakewood doctors and pediatricians recently, it did the same in Brooklyn. families have found themselves scrambling for alternative health insurance plans as several local pediatricians have ceased accepting United Healthcare’s community plan over the past few months. The biggest concern was that UHC community plan dropped CHOP were many from Lakewood have gone for medical care. Other HMO's have not partnered with CHOP and are working with children's hospitals such as Dupont in Delaware, RWJ in New Brunswick or Hackensack medical center.
There are patients from the community who must see specialists at CHOP and askanim have reached out to officials there hoping to get back coverage for UHC. It seems that as of last week UHC has notified CHOP that it will resume coverage but only for certain patients and procedures.
UHC renewed their contract with CHOP.There are no restrictions from what I have researched
