Evidence of Coverage
An Evidence of Coverage (EOC) is a document that provides information on the plan, providers, benefits information including what is covered and how much you as a member has to pay for those benefits, how to ask us to cover a service, how to file an appeal if we deny coverage for a service you think should be covered, and how to file a grievance if you are dissatisfied with the plan or a plan provider or pharmacy.
Prior Authorizations
Certain benefits require an approval in advance. When a benefit needs approval in advance, you or your provider can submit a medical coverage determination request. These benefits are marked with an asterisk in your Evidence of Coverage booklet, Chapter 4, Benefit Listing.
Referrals
Your relationship with your Primary Care Provider (PCP) is very important. Your PCP will coordinate your care and make referrals to specialists or for diagnostic services. You do not need a referral for specialist visits, but it is advised to see your PCP first to make sure you are going to the right specialist.
