Ascension Wisconsin Reaches New Agreement with UnitedHealthcare, Ensuring Continued Access to In-Network Care

Ascension Wisconsin is pleased to announce it has reached a new agreement with UnitedHealthcare (UHC), securing uninterrupted, in-network access to care for patients covered under UHC’s Commercial, Medicare and Medicaid plans.

This renewed agreement ensures that individuals and families with UnitedHealthcare coverage can continue receiving high-quality care at Ascension Wisconsin’s hospitals, clinics and outpatient facilities without disruption.

“This agreement is more than just a contract,” said Daniel Jackson, CEO of Ascension Wisconsin. “It is a reaffirmation of our Mission to serve all with dignity and compassion. By securing fair and sustainable reimbursement, we are able to continue supporting our caregivers, strengthening our ministries, and providing high-quality, compassionate care across the communities we serve.”

Ascension Wisconsin extends its gratitude to our patients, caregivers and partners for their continued trust, support and patience throughout this process. The organization remains committed to building collaborative relationships with insurers to ensure access to the care people need—especially for the most vulnerable populations.

“We are grateful for the partnership and patience of those we serve as we navigated this important agreement,” added Jackson. “Together, we will continue our healing ministry and our commitment to the health and well-being of our communities.”
