UHC releases cost-transparency tool

Written by Bukaty Companies | January 25, 2023

Starting January 1, UnitedHealthcare (UHC) members have access to an enhanced cost-transparency tool that includes cost-sharing information on 500 shoppable medical services and items. 

Group health plans subject to the Transparency in Coverage and Consolidated Appropriations acts were instructed to provide this information for plan years on or after January 1, 2023. The measure is one of many new initiatives designed to increase cost transparency for medical care and to empower members to make informed decisions about the cost of care.

Bukaty UHC clients, who use Employee Navigator as a year-round enrollment tool, have the link installed on their portal as shown below.
