PROVIDER NETWORK EFFECTIVE 1/1/19
The Plan has chosen Anthem Blue
Cross as the PPO provider for the Indemnity Medical Plan and the Exclusive
Provider Organization (EPO) Plan effective January 1, 2019. Anthem Blue Cross is now the current
provider network. To obtain
the maximum possible benefits from the Plan, you still must use Behavioral
Health Options (BHO) for behavioral health services and Navitus for
prescription drug benefits. Finally, the
current Hospital network in the Las Vegas area is not changing and will
apply to both the PPO and the EPO Plan.
To find a doctor using the Anthem
website:
Go to www.anthem.com
-Click on the Menu on the upper left side of the web page
-Select "Find a Doctor" under the Care section in the middle of the page
-Under "Search as a Member", go to the OR section that asks for "Identification Number or prefix (first three values) and enter IFP
Then you can find a provider in the network by entering the type of provider, the specialty of the provider, and your location. You can also limit the selection to those doctors who are accepting new patients.

*QUEST
LABORATORY IS NO LONGER A CONTRACTED PROVIDER*
If
you have lab work done by Quest after January 1, 2019, it will be considered
Out of Network and your out of pocket expense will be higher. You are responsible to inform your ordering
physician to ensure they do not send lab requests to Quest. If your doctor orders lab work using a Quest
lab slip, you should take it to LabCorp (Anthem contracted lab) or to one of
the Collective Union Health clinic locations.
Lab work that is done at the Collective Union Health clinic locations is
no cost to you.
