Important Update for Patients with UnitedHealthcare - October 28, 2021

Catawba Valley Health System (CVHS) is pleased to update you that UnitedHealthcare and CVHS have reached a multi-year agreement on a new contract. This agreement protects affordability and provides UnitedHealthcare members with continued in-network access to Catawba Valley Medical Center and Catawba Valley Medical Group.


This impacts patients with UnitedHealthcare commercial, Medicare Advantage and VA Community Care Network insurance plans. In addition, CVHS is now in network with the UHC Medicaid plan.


Insurance plans will be back in-network for hospital services immediately. All claims on or after October 1st will be processed as in-network as well. Plans for CVHS-employed physician services have remained in-network during the recent negotiation period and have not been affected.


Patients can expect to find out more information by mail in the coming weeks.
