The addition of United Healthcare allows services provided for
Caterpillar employees or retirees and their families to be covered
at the in-network rate.
Health insurance companies typically pay a higher percentage of a
hospital or doctor's office bill when an in-network provider is
used.
Health care consumers should understand in advance what charges
from which providers are covered at the maximum level and which are
not. Insurance provider arrangements can change frequently.
Consumers should contact their insurance company prior to receiving
planned health care services like surgery, diagnostic imaging,
therapy treatments or giving birth.
Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital is a community-based general
hospital. ALMH is a 12-year affiliate of the Memorial Health System
of Springfield, whose vision is to be the leading health care system
that people choose over all others. For more information on the
