Beginning January 1, 2017, we will be making changes to the way you receive news and announcements from Independence.

Partners in Health Update will be presented as an online, real-time newsletter posted directly to our Provider News Center. This allows us to provide you with notices of changes or clarifications to administrative policies and procedures, new products and programs, and other provider-specific information in a more timely manner.

On the home page of the Provider News Center, the Latest News section will be renamed Partners in Health Update and it will feature the most recent articles posted. We will continue to include audience indicators (i.e., P, F, A) so you can easily find the articles that are pertinent to you and your staff. A complete archive of articles by topic is also available using the top navigation menu.

We will continue to send an email notification at the beginning of each month to highlight some of the recent articles that have been posted. If you do not currently receive our email notifications, please sign up by selecting Sign up for email from Provider Communications under Contact Us in the right-hand column of the Provider News Center.

Note: This December 2016 edition will be the last consolidated publication of Partners in Health Update.

We encourage you to visit the Provider News Center frequently to stay informed of important news and information from Independence.

If you have any questions about this change, please email us.
