In-network with UnitedHealthcare
Sorrento Valley Chiropractic is in-network with UnitedHealthcare (UHC) - here's how your chiropractic coverage works, and how we'll confirm your specific benefits.
UnitedHealthcare, part of UnitedHealth Group, is the largest health insurer in the United States, covering employer, individual and Medicare Advantage members throughout San Diego. Most UHC medical plans include chiropractic coverage for medically necessary care.
We're in-network with UnitedHealthcare at our Sorrento Valley office, so your visits are billed at in-network rates. We verify your specific benefits up front so you know your copay, deductible and visit limits before your first appointment.
How United Healthcare chiropractic coverage typically works
UnitedHealthcare typically covers chiropractic when it's medically necessary and aimed at restoring function, applying a copay or coinsurance after the deductible and capping covered visits per year on most plans.
UHC often manages physical-health and chiropractic benefits through Optum and may require clinical review or notification after a number of visits. As an in-network office, we track those requirements for you so your care isn't interrupted.
