"Prisma Exits UnitedHealthcare's Insurance Network"
Prisma Health is no longer in the United Healthcare network due to unsuccessful contract negotiations, affecting thousands of patients who are now out-of-network. The dispute centers on reimbursement rates, with Prisma claiming United Healthcare is not offering a reasonable agreement to cover cost increases, while United Healthcare accuses Prisma of demanding excessive price hikes. Some patients with specific conditions may still qualify for continued care at Prisma facilities. Both parties are continuing negotiations and blame each other for the impasse.
