Check out how we take our network to another level, so the right care is always close by

When you’re in need of health care, the last thing on your mind should be where can I go that’s covered. At Univera Healthcare, we’re proud to offer the largest local network in Western New York.¹ Providing you and your employees coverage that helps people live healthier lives, takes affordability into account and makes the experience easier for everyone. It’s not every day you need to use your health care, but when you do, we have your back. With our benefits, also comes the peace of mind knowing we provide access to hospitals, doctors, nurses, and more across your home region – all 39 counties of it.

Our service goes beyond just in-person visits too. We make remote care options available to supplement our local provider network to improve access to care.

• MDLIVE® telemedicine: 24/7 access to both physical and behavioral health care
• Vori Health³: Virtual physical therapy for musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions

Our unique approach to value-based care

We recognize that health care costs are continuously on the rise and to address these issues, we’ve created a new way of thinking. Accountable Cost and Quality Agreement (ACQA) is our localized approach to value-based payment agreements. Univera Healthcare and a network of local doctors and hospitals collaborate to provide coordinated health care for members with the goal of improving care quality and reducing costs. Through increased partnerships between Univera Healthcare and providers, the ACQA promotes a better, more holistic patient experience for members while working to reduce unnecessary medical costs for all and improve health outcomes.

Providers engaged in ACQAs achieved⁴:

It’s our mission to help people in our communities live healthier and more secure lives through access to high-quality health care. It’s what guides every decision we make. We bring the largest local network, so coverage is always there when your team needs it, where they need it. And by collaborating with providers through ACQAs, we can provide highly coordinated care for member and lower costs for everyone.

See for yourself why so many area employers trust us to care for their teams, and ultimately, their businesses.
