What some people may not know is that there are contracts signed between insurance providers and healthcare providers, this is what creates the covered visits under your insurance. That's why they always ask for your insurance to make sure that it is a partner of theirs and if it isn't than they will ask if you would still like to be serviced.

There are dozens of insurance providers that have contracts with several healthcare providers throughout the state of Michigan and the country as a whole. United Healthcare is one of the major insurance providers in the country that has contracts with dozens of healthcare providers in the United States, there is one provider they are having some contract negotiations with, that could end in the worst way.

WWMT via MSN reports:

In renewing their commercial insurance contract with UnitedHealthcare, Bronson Healthcare is negotiating reimbursements rates, officials announced Monday, and if a new agreement cannot be reached, Bronson hospitals, physician officers and outpatient locations may become out-of-network for UnitedHealthcare plans starting Jan. 1, 2026. The change would impact people with UnitedHealthcare employer-spoored plans and plans purchased through the Health Insurance Marketplace.

Bronson has made it clear that they are working and hopeful to find a resolution that will continue their relationship with UnitedHealthcare to give those patients insured by them the best care possible. Bronson is reaching out to patients and employers who may be affected and updating their website with the most accurate information.
