Hello,

 

This is a friendly reminder from MHCA. As an association, we are bound to follow Anti-Trust policies. As much as we recognize that collaborative efforts among our members can result in improved health care and outcomes for the patients and communities we serve, we also recognizes the possibility that the Association and its activities could be viewed by some as an opportunity for anticompetitive business conduct. The attached policy is applicable to our meetings as well as our listservs.

 

We respectfully ask that members review this policy and not engage in discussions of matters that may create the appearance of an antitrust violation, such as prices, costs, customers, allocating or dividing service territories or customers, contract terms, buyer or supplier relationships, competitive bids, etc.

 

Thank you all!!

We just signed an agreement with them. The agreement said we cannot discuss the payment terms. You should try to ask to negotiate rates

Are there any agencies using United Health Care? They have sent us a contract to sign but are only willing to pay 15.00 for a home health aide visit, and 30.00 for an LPN. 

Just wondering if anybody else has run into problems with them.

 

Thanks in advance
