Louisiana Children’s Medical Center (LCMC)

We have extended our network relationship with LCMC’s hospitals through Nov. 7

We have extended our hospital contract with LCMC through Nov. 7 for people enrolled in employer-sponsored commercial plans, including UMR and Individual Family Plan (IFP). This provides our members continued, uninterrupted network access to LCMC’s hospitals while our organizations continue our efforts to finalize a long-term relationship.

People enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans, including Group Retiree and Dual Special Needs Plan (D-SNP), as well as our Medicaid plan, were not impacted by our negotiation and continue to have network access to LCMC’s hospitals, facilities and its physicians. Likewise, people enrolled in employer-sponsored commercial plans have continued network access to LCMC’s physicians.
