Welcome to Optum Network—Kansas
Being a physician today is hard. Making the transition to value-based care, on top of everything else you do, takes extra time, resources, and expertise. At Optum, we are here to serve you by making it easier for you to get value-based care off the ground and to get to success more quickly.

As a Senior Medical Director at Optum Care, and a practicing family physician for over 40 years, I have seen the value that Optum Care can bring to your practice to help improve the health of your patients. Navigating the challenges and requirements of today’s health system can be hard while helping to keep your patients healthy — not to mention the complexities of value-based medicine. Optum Care is here to help. We offer support, tools and an intentional step-based approach that makes it easier and faster to get to success with value-based care. Our client services team is built to be helpful to you and your practice, not inspectors to insert themselves between you and your patients. Optum Care’s Quality Incentive Program (QIP) ensures your practice thrives by prioritizing patient well-being through managing chronic conditions, closing care gaps, improving patient satisfaction and overall STARS performance. Together, we can improve care quality and outcomes for your patients while you receive appropriate financial incentives for the value you provide. I look forward to introducing you to the Optum Care difference.
