The state of Utah rebid the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), so effective July 1, 2010 I will no longer be able to accept any form of CHIP. Utah chose the insurance companies of SelectHealth and Molina to administrate CHIP in Utah for the next five years, and I am not a contract provider with either of them.
By the way, I would be a contract provider with SelectHealth, but from Provo to Cache Valley they discriminate against optometrists and only allow ophthalmologists on their panel. I would suggest writing your Utah state senators and representatives and ask them to not allow the Utah state government to contract with insurance companies that do not allow any willing provider to be paneled.
