- The provider is not part of the health plan’s provider network but is the main source of a service to the member. We will work with the provider to participate in our provider network. If the provider chooses not to join our provider network, or does not meet the necessary qualifications to be part of the provider network, we will transition the member to an in-network provider within sixty (60) days. If the provider is not appropriately licensed or is sanctioned, we will transition the member to another provider immediately;
- The only provider in-network and available to the member does not, because of moral or religious objections, provide the services the member seeks, or all related services are not available;
- The member’s PCP determines that the member needs related services that would be subject the member to unnecessary risk if received separately and not all of the related services are available within the health plan’s provider network; and
