UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Kansas
We insure more pregnant moms, more children, and more aged, blind and persons with disabilities than anyone else. No one has a larger list of doctors and hospitals. We're a leader in working with community organizations to help the uninsured become insured, and the insured to get the best medical care possible. We're a leader in the effort to understand the social and cultural causes of disease. UnitedHealthcare has been in your community for years. We look forward to partnering with you.
