Dear Valued Provider,

Recently your Wellcare of North Carolina Medicare members may have received a letter from Wellcare indicating that your agreement with Wellcare Medicare would be ending on April 30, 2022. This notification was sent due to a system error. Retraction notices are being processed and will be provided to all impacted members no later than April 30. You should continue to render services to Wellcare Medicare members as there is no impact to your participation status.

We value your partnership, and our goal is to provide the highest level of service to our providers. Please accept our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience this has caused your office and our members.
