AmeriChoice®, The Leading Choice in Health Care

AmeriChoice is the premier provider in the United States of high quality, personalized public sector health care programs, serving more than three million people in Medicaid, Medicare and Children's Health Insurance Programs in 25 states and the District of Columbia. AmeriChoice is a business of UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH), a diversified Fortune 50 health and well-being company.

AmeriChoice has invested in the systems and people to successfully provide quality service to our state customers and we have designed health plans that meet the unique needs of the diverse populations we serve.

The unique AmeriChoice Personal Care Model™ features direct member contact by clinical staff who work to build a support network for chronically and acutely ill members involving family, physicians and government and community-based organizations. The goal is to employ practical solutions to improve members’ health and keep them in their communities, with the resources they need to maintain the highest possible functional status.

AmeriChoice uses a variety of advanced technology applications to ensure that high quality, timely and appropriate health care is available to all members. We have developed our own software to monitor member access to services. We use a sophisticated clinical risk stratification tool to ensure that our members are receiving optimal care.

We emphasize preventive health and education. We regularly encourage members to get annual physicals and routine diagnostic and screening tests, and we often work with community organizations to ensure that there are no cultural or language barriers to our members getting the care they need.

AmeriChoice believes that compassion and respect are essential components of a successful health care company. We contract with community-based networks and employ a diverse workforce, with varied backgrounds and extensive practical experience that gives us a better understanding of our members and their needs.

Our detailed knowledge of our members and our service areas, the application of cutting-edge technology and the commitment of our employees have made AmeriChoice the leading choice for quality public sector health care.
