Dear Valued Patient,
For more than 75 years, our practice has been privileged to care for the people of Western New York. In January 2027, our practice’s 70+ providers will begin practicing through Great Lakes Urology, Great Lakes Pediatric Urology and Great Lakes Oncology. Because of this change, we are working on new contracts with all health insurance companies we currently participate with for next year.
We have partnered with Univera Healthcare to bring value-based care to our patients. As a long-standing, regional, nonprofit health plan proudly serving Western New York, Univera Healthcare shares our commitment to supporting the health and well-being of the communities we serve. At this time our confirmed participation for 2027 is with Univera Healthcare, Excellus Health Plan, Traditional Medicare and Traditional Medicaid. Together we will work to lower the cost of care while maintaining the highest quality.
Nothing about these changes affects the most important thing: the relationship you have with your provider and care team. Your doctors, our locations, and our dedication to the highest quality care remain the same. Choosing a participating plan this fall is the best way to ensure your care with us remains uninterrupted.
Thank you for trusting us with your health.
Sincerely,
Kent Chevli, M.D.
President
