UnitedHealthcare NexusACO is available in Northern Virginia to help lower costs and expand access to quality care

The NexusACO® plan is available to employers in Northern Virginia with 51 to 300 employees.

To build the NexusACO provider network, UnitedHealthcare collaborated with select Affordable Care Organizations (ACOs) across the country dedicated to offering quality care at lower costs. In Northern Virginia the collaboration is with Privia. Each NexusACO provider is featured at the highest benefit level (Tier 1). In markets where ACOs are not yet featured, the NexusACO Tier 1 network includes designated UnitedHealth Premium® Care Physicians and specialists.

Tier 2 access is designated by the UnitedHealthcare national Choice Plus network. If a member does not reside in the designated service area, their Tier 1 solution will default to the UnitedHealth Premium designation program provider network.

NexusACO providers work together to coordinate patient care and participate in incentive programs to help improve quality standards and the efficiency of care.

How it works

The NexusACO plan offers multiple benefits for customers and their employees, including:

• Potential lower costs – Employees connected with top-performing primary care physicians (PCP) typically receive better care coordination which may result in up to 11%¹ lower costs for employers
• Simpler experience – PCPs guide members and their families to help meet their care needs
• A path to improved outcomes – Routine visits with a PCP may help employees uncover major conditions without symptoms
