CommunityCare
The best way for primary care providers (PCPs) to view and export the full member roster is using the CommunityCare feature in the UnitedHealthcare Provider Portal, which allows you to:
- Identify Medicaid recipients who need to have their Medicaid recertification completed and approved by the state in order to remain eligible to receive Medicaid benefits
- See a complete list of all members, or just members added in the last 30 days
- Export the roster to Microsoft Excel
- View most Medicaid and Medicare Special Needs Plans (SNP) members’ plans of care and health assessments
- Enter plan notes and view notes history (for some plans)
- Obtain HEDIS® information for your member population
- Access information about members admitted to or discharged from an inpatient facility
- Access information about members seen in an emergency department
For help using CommunityCare feature on the UnitedHealthcare Provider Portal, please see our quick reference guide. If you’re not familiar with UnitedHealthcare Provider Portal, visit our Portal resources page.
Reporting fraud, waster or abuse to us
When you report a situation that could be considered fraud, you’re doing your part to help save money for the health care system and prevent personal loss for others. If you suspect another provider or member has committed fraud, waste or abuse, you have a responsibility and a right to report it.
Taking action and making a report is an important first step. After your report is made, we will work to detect, correct and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse in the health care system.
Call us at 844-359-7736 or visit uhc.com/fraud to report any issues or concerns.
How to report fraud, waste or abuse to the State of Arizona
The Office of Inspector General for the State of Arizona provides a way for members, plans, providers and the public to report all forms of suspected fraud, waste or abuse of the program. We encourage medical professionals and their staff to review the information available on the AHCCCS website.
UnitedHealthcare Dual Complete® Special Needs Plan
UnitedHealthcare Dual Complete Special Needs Plans (D-SNP) offer benefits for people with both Medicare and Medicaid. These D-SNP plans provide benefits beyond Original Medicare and may include transportation to medical appointments and vision exams. Members must have Medicaid to enroll.
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) information
HIPAA standardized both medical and non-medical codes across the health care industry and under this federal regulation, local medical service codes must now be replaced with the appropriate HCPCS and CPT®-4 codes.
Integrity of claims, reports and representations to the government
UnitedHealth Group requires compliance with the requirements of federal and state laws that prohibit the submission of false claims in connection with federal health care programs, including Medicare and Medicaid.
