Important Update Regarding Wellpoint

wellpoint-cooknet-hero

Beginning in early November, Cook Children’s will no longer be an in-network provider for Wellpoint, a Medicaid health insurance plan used by many of our patient families across North Texas and beyond.

Supporting Our Teams and Families

  • Guiding Our Families: We are reaching out to affected patient families to help them navigate this transition.
  • Resources for Patients: Families will be able to find helpful information and clear steps to take in the coming weeks on a dedicated webpage at the Cook Children’s website.
  • Information for Staff: We have prepared detailed guidance for physicians and staff members across all clinics, neighborhood health centers, and other locations to ensure you have the answers needed to support our families. Find them on the Payor Relations site on CookNet.

Thank you for your compassion, patience, and unwavering commitment to our patients as we work through this transition together.
