UnitedHealthcare's individual marketplace plan in-network with
Springfield Clinic for 2026
[December 06, 2025]
We are pleased to announce that UnitedHealthcare’s Affordable
Care Act (ACA) individual marketplace plan is in-network with
Springfield Clinic for 2026.
Open enrollment for coverage starting Jan. 1, 2026, runs from Nov. 1 to
Dec. 15, 2025. The deadline for our patients to make changes to their
marketplace plan selection is approaching (learn more at
getcovered.illinois.gov).
By choosing UnitedHealthcare’s individual insurance plan for 2026,
patients will have access to all Springfield Clinic providers at
in-network rates.
Key Changes Effective for Coverage Starting Jan. 1, 2026:
New In-Network Option:
UnitedHealthcare will join the ACA individual marketplace as an
in-network option for Springfield Clinic providers. Patients selecting
UnitedHealthcare for 2026 coverage will have access to all Springfield
Clinic providers at in-network rates.
Out-of-Network Coverage:
Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) Choice plans will remain available on the
marketplace; however, BCBS will be out-of-network with Springfield
Clinic providers. Patients choosing BCBS will need to use self-pay
options for care at Springfield Clinic. Our Patient Advocate Center can
provide good faith estimates to help patients understand expected costs
before receiving care.

We encourage patients to review their options carefully to ensure
continued access to Springfield Clinic providers. For questions or
assistance with billing or insurance, please contact the Patient
Advocate Center at 217.793.5428.
