  • Reduced revenue by 60-80% compared to credentialed providers
  • Compliance and legal risks with varying state regulations
  • Manual billing, collections, and payment processing overhead
  • No access to Oscar Health’s 1.6+ million members nationwide
  • Limited telehealth platform integration and support
  • Higher administrative burden for claims and documentation
  • Difficulty scaling practice across multiple states

Enrollment

Without Enrollment:

  • Limited or no access to Oscar Health members across 18+ states
  • Unpredictable reimbursement rates & lack of transparent fee schedule
  • Absence of streamlined digital processes and provider portal access
  • Delayed or inconsistent payment cycles
  • No access to telehealth platform or Oscar Virtual Care ecosystem
  • Lack of dedicated provider support team and credentialing specialists
  • Higher rejection rates in claims processing with no automation
  • No multi-state licensing support or compliance assistance
