Please note that while tango does not authorize behavioral health, respiratory therapy, or home infusion therapy nursing services, we can provide you with contact information for providers offering these services.
tango aims to ensure exceptional in-home care for Wellcare’s Medicare Advantage members while reducing readmissions and ED utilization. We encourage your organization to apply for tango’s skilled home health network, which includes value-based payment opportunities to support our shared mission of delivering high-quality, cost-effective care.
If you are not already a participating provider with tango, we encourage you to learn more about the benefits of becoming a contracted tango provider.
Effective July 1, 2025, any skilled home health agency not already contracted with tango for the services mentioned above will be considered out-of-network for Wellcare members.
Members who are already enrolled in a skilled home health episode as of a July 1 effective date may continue receiving those services through the end of the authorization period. At that point, a request must be made to tango for continued services. Out-of-network agencies will be offered the opportunity to join the network or will be required to transition the member to an in-network provider at the end of the certification period.
For all requests related to new or concurring skilled home health treatment authorizations for services as of July 1, please direct them to tango’s provider relations team at [email protected].
For any other assistance or information regarding skilled home health authorizations, program inquiries and feedback, training requests, language assistance, and general questions, please contact the tango team.
