LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 29, 2016 -- CareSource and University of Louisville Physicians have reached an agreement to provide more affordable health care options for Kentuckians. Now UofL Physicians accepts patients with CareSource health insurance coverage.
The agreement gives CareSource members with marketplace and Medicare Advantage plans access to the largest multispecialty physicians group in the Louisville area. UofL Physicians has more than 900 providers in 78 specialties and subspecialties.
"Research shows us that when selecting insurance coverage, for almost 50 percent of Kentuckians, the ability to keep their own doctor or hospital is the most important decision factor," said CareSource Senior Vice President Scott Streator, citing recent market research conducted by CareSource. "By coming together with UofL Physicians, CareSource is pleased to offer Kentuckians increased access to affordable coverage that includes more than 100 office locations and dozens of health clinics throughout the state of Kentucky."
Becky Lamb, vice president of contracting for UofL Physicians, said "We are pleased to partner with CareSource to provide exceptional care for their growing membership."
A non-profit health plan with a 26-year history, CareSource continues to invest in the health and well-being of Kentuckians through an expanding coverage area and provider network. For 2016, CareSource increased the footprint of its marketplace plan, CareSource Just4Me, to 46 counties and has added more than 1,000 providers to its network. CareSource serves more than 135,000 Kentuckians through its marketplace and Medicare Advantage plans, and through an alliance with Humana to serve Medicaid members.
