UPMC Health Plan achieves high ratings in provider satisfaction

Aug. 2022Important Notices
"In 2021, 95 percent of physician practice survey respondents indicated they would recommend UPMC Health Plan to other physician practices. In addition, respondents ranked UPMC Health Plan in the 93rd percentile or higher on 17 of 19 questions in the 2021 Provider Satisfaction Survey.

UPMC Health Plan contracts with Symphony Performance Health (SPH) Analytics to measure provider satisfaction levels and to meet one or more NCQA Health Plan Accreditation Standards. SPH incorporates a percentile ranking to allow health plans to compare performance to a cohort of similar health plans who initiate a provider satisfaction survey.

You may be a randomly selected provider invited to participate in the 2022 survey that will begin later this month! The survey will ask for feedback on your experience with UPMC Health Plan. Watch for an invitation in the mail or via email later this month."
