About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

UCare Minnesota is a Minneapolis-based nonprofit health plan serving Medicaid, Medicare, and individual and family members statewide. To keep members' non-emergency medical trips reliable, UCare contracts with a network of transportation vendors, and its transportation network provider agreement can condition network participation on a $100,000 surety bond.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal, the transportation vendor), the surety carrier, and UCare as obligee. If a contracted vendor fails to perform under its network agreement, or leaves a covered obligation unmet, UCare can make a claim against the bond, and if the surety pays, the vendor repays the surety.

This is a private contractual requirement arising from UCare's own provider agreement, not a Minnesota statute or Department of Human Services rule — so the amount, and whether a bond applies at all, follows UCare's own contracting terms rather than a fixed public code section. Confirm the current bonding requirement with your UCare contracting or network representative before applying.

How much is the UCare transportation provider bond?The premium is $2,000 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond. The $100,000 bond amount is fixed in UCare's transportation network provider agreement, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $100,000?No. You pay $2,000. The $100,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

Is there a credit check?The application includes a credit consent, but it authorizes a soft credit pull only — a soft inquiry that never affects your score. No hard inquiry ever runs on this bond.
Is this bond required by Minnesota law?No. It's a private requirement in UCare Minnesota's own transportation network provider agreement, not a state statute. Confirm the current requirement with your UCare contracting or network representative.
