Clarification: 黑料网 Not Involved in UnitedHealthcare Designated Diagnostic Imaging Provider Program

The 黑料网® (黑料网®) was not involved in the planning, creation or announcement of the new UnitedHealthcare Designated Diagnostic Imaging Provider Program

evaluates imaging sites on “quality and efficiency standards,” based on a that providers’ fill out themselves, as well as contracted payment amounts. Starting July 1, UHC will offer patients tiered benefits based on their selected providers’ designation

As covered in a Jan. 30 黑料网 Advocacy in Action e-newsletter item alerting members to the new UHC program, the 黑料网 met with UHC after their announcement to discuss the program, gather details and express initial concerns

Many readers misinterpreted passages in the AIA article and subsequent coverage of the 黑料网 item in to indicate that the 黑料网 was somehow involved in the new program. We are not.

The 黑料网 clarified this in both the AIA item and the RBJ report. We apologize for any confusion members may have experienced regarding this matter.

Additional information about the new UHC program may be found on UnitedHealthcare’s .
