Out of Network Coverage (Part C)

Most of the time, you must get your health care from a Superior HealthPlan STAR+PLUS Medicare-Medicaid Plan (MMP) contracted provider. Usually the plan will not cover health care services from a provider who does not work with the health plan.  However, there are some situations in which this rule does not apply:

  • If you have an emergency or need urgent care and an in-network provider is not nearby.
  • If you need care that the plan covers and our network providers cannot give it to you, you may get that care from an out-of-network provider. A prior authorization will be required first.
  • If you need kidney dialysis services when you are outside the plan’s service area for a short time, you can get these services at a Medicare-certified dialysis facility.
  • When you first join the plan, you can continue to see the providers you see now for at least 90 days. If you need to continue to see your provider after your first 90 days in our plan, your care will only be covered if your provider enters into a single case agreement with us.  Contact your Service Coordinator for more information at 1-855-772-7075 (TTY:711).
  • Your Primary Care Provider or Superior HealthPlan STAR+PLUS Medicare-Medicaid Plan (MMP) will most likely need to approve the service you are seeking. Without approval, you will have to pay for the service. 

For more information, please refer to your Member Handbook or call Member Services at 1-866-896-1844. Hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Friday.
