When it comes to health insurance, University of Utah Health Plans truly lives up to its tagline: By Utah. For Utah. These plans aren’t built by a national corporation guessing what Utah families need—they’re designed by people who live here, work here, and get care here too.


From standout wellness rewards to huge provider networks and genuinely fast customer service, University of Utah Health Plans are built to make health insurance simpler, more complete, and honestly… easy to use.


💸 Get Rewarded for Taking Care of Yourself

One of the most loved features of University of Utah Health Plans is their member wellness incentives. Staying healthy doesn’t just feel good—it pays off.


Eligible members can earn $50 gift cards for completing common preventive care:

  • Flu Shot (All Ages) – $50 gift card per member

  • Well-Child Visit (Ages 3–17) – $50 gift card per child

  • Preventive Care Visit (Ages 18+) – $50 gift card per member

  • Breast Cancer Screening (Women 40+) – $50


That’s real money back in your pocket for things you should already be doing—and your doctor probably reminds you about anyway.


🏥 Two Strong Networks: Premier & Plus

University of Utah Health Plans offers two excellent provider networks, so members can choose what works best for their location and care needs.


Healthy Premier Network

  • 19,925 providers

  • 52 hospitals

  • 103 urgent care locations

  • One of the largest networks in Utah, with statewide access


U Health Plus Network

  • 7,656 providers

  • 10 hospitals

  • 22 urgent care locations

  • Designed for members in Salt Lake and Davis Counties


Both networks include top-tier hospitals, specialists, and clinics—without forcing members into overly narrow options.


🩺 Clinics You Know and Trust

University of Utah Health Plans works with many of the clinics Utah families already use every day, including:

  • Granger Clinic

  • Ogden Clinic

  • Foothill Family Clinic

  • Tanner Clinic

  • Revere Health

  • Premier Family Medical

  • And many more


That means fewer disruptions, fewer provider changes, and less stress when choosing care.


🌟 Benefits That Go Beyond “Benchmark” Plans

Unlike many Marketplace plans that limit services to minimum requirements, University of Utah Health Plans offer robust, comprehensive benefits.

Many plans include coverage for things often excluded elsewhere, such as:

  • Adult routine eye exams

  • Sleep studies and CPAP machines

  • Mobility aids (wheelchairs, walkers, canes)

  • Allergy testing

  • Prosthetics


These aren’t “extras”—they’re real-life needs, and these plans are built to support them.


🛡️ Preventive Care Covered at 100%

Preventive care is the foundation of long-term health, and University of Utah Health Plans fully embraces that.

Covered preventive services include:

  • Well-child visits (starting with newborn care)

  • Adult wellness visits

  • Routine eye exams

  • Flu shots

  • Colon cancer screenings

  • Pap tests

  • Breast cancer screenings

  • Cholesterol screenings


Getting care early helps prevent bigger problems later—and these plans make it easy to stay on track.


⭐ Customer Service That Actually Delivers

This is where University of Utah Health Plans truly shine.

  • 3-second average call wait time

  • 97% phone audit accuracy

  • 5-day average claim turnaround time


That means:

  • Members get answers fast

  • Doctors get paid on time

  • Issues don’t linger for weeks


They’ve been part of Utah’s Marketplace since the very beginning, and their deep local experience shows in how smoothly things run.
