To help you more easily deliver care to UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Rhode Island members, we’re temporarily removing the referral requirement for members who see in-network specialists. For dates of service starting April 21, 2020, and extending until further notice, we won’t deny claims for covered services because there’s no referral in the system.

This change to the referral requirements doesn’t affect existing prior authorization and notification requirements.

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, UnitedHealthcare works to detect, correct and prevent fraud , waste  and abuse  in the health care system.

Call us at 1-844-359-7736 or at uhc.com/fraud to report any issues or concerns.
