Contract Termination: UnitedHealthcare Medicare Advantage Plans
[Irvine, CA] Effective Jan. 1, 2026, the Providence Clinical Network (PCN) will no longer be contracted with UnitedHealthCare Medicare Advantage plans.
While this news may feel unsettling, we want you to know that Providence is here to support both you and our patients through this transition and assisting in finding a new Medicare plan so that patients may retain access to your Providence primary care team, specialists and hospitals.
Providence Clinical Network includes medical groups and hospitals in Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Humboldt, Napa, Sonoma, and Ventura counties’ markets, including St. Jude and Joseph Heritage, Mission Heritage, Facey, Axminster, Providence Medical Associates, Saint John’s Medical and Providence Affiliated medical groups. *
Existing UHC Medicare Advantage members that want to continue to access Providence after December 31, 2025, will need to change plans to one of our other contracted Medicare Advantage carriers during a CMS enrollment period.
This notification does not affect existing United Healthcare commercial HMO and PPO products and plans.
