LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) – Patients covered by UnitedHealthcare can continue to see providers at Texas Tech Physicians without any interruption in coverage.
Texas Tech University Health Science Center announced and Texas Tech Physicians announced they have reached an agreement with UnitedHealthcare.
TTUHSC says the commercial and Medicare Advantage agreement will have no lapse in care since the effective date of the new agreement will be retroactive to April 1, 2026.
In early 2025, Texas Tech Physicians opened discussions with UnitedHealthcare for its clinics in Lubbock, Amarillo and the Permian Basin.
“We know periods of uncertainty can be difficult, and we sincerely appreciate the trust our patients placed in us,” Martin Clay, Texas Tech Physicians Executive Director said. “Their support, along with the commitment of our team, helped us reach a positive resolution with UnitedHealthcare so we can continue focusing on what matters most — providing exceptional care to the communities we serve.”
