Immediate action required: Enroll with MassHealth to avoid network termination - UHCprovider.com
Effective immediately, the federally mandated 21st Century Cures Act requires enrollment for all Medicaid managed care network health care professionals. MassHealth is enforcing the enrollment requirement. If your enrollment with the state Medicaid agency is missing or expired, your participation is at risk of being removed from UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Massachusetts Senior Care Options and Connected for One Care.
By complying with the Cures Act and having a current MassHealth enrollment, you'll help maintain your network participation and avoid billing delays.
