**We are IN-NETWORK with UHC** As you likely have heard, Ascension Hospital System is no longer in network with United Healthcare insurance plans. Despite our close collaboration with Ascension, Hand to Shoulder Specialists of Wisconsin remains independent and has our own contract with United Healthcare that remains unchanged. As a result, all office visits, therapy, and surgeon fees remain IN-NETWORK for UHC patients. We have surgical privileges at multiple non-Ascension facilities throughout the region and we will schedule your surgery at an in-network facility. If you are already scheduled for surgery, please call the office directly as eligibility depends on your specific plan.
