What is happening?
US Digestive Health is committed to giving our patients the highest possible level of care. Our patients are at the center of everything we do – from creating a thoughtful care experience to leading cutting-edge clinical research for a better, healthier tomorrow. However, like many providers, we are facing financial pressures from the rising cost to provide patient care. We need our insurance company partners including Highmark to pay us fairly for the care we provide, so that we can continue to invest in the best possible outcomes for our patients.
We understand that the uncertainty insurance contract negotiation can cause for patients is challenging and even stressful. Please know we will continue to advocate for you, our Highmark patients, to preserve in-network access to the GI specialists and care teams you know and trust.
