Do PCPs need a referral to see a

MeridianComplete

member not assigned to their panel?


Yes, members must choose an in-network PCP to provide their care.  In most situations, the member's in-network PCP or our plan must provide a referral before the member can use other providers in the plan’s network, such as specialists, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, or home health care agencies.

 

Referrals from the member's PCP are not required for emergency care or urgently needed care.


Do Specialists need a referral to provide services to

MeridianComplete

members in the office?


Yes, members must choose an in-network PCP to provide their care.  In most situations, the member's in-network PCP or our plan must provide a referral before the member can use other providers in the plan’s network, such as specialists, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, or home health care agencies.

 

Referrals from the member's PCP are not required for emergency care or urgently needed care.
