How Providers Affect Your Costs. MEDICAL SERVICES This plan is a Preferred Provider plan (PPO). This means that your plan provides you benefits for covered services from providers of your choice. It also gives you access to the Heritage Signature provider network and to networks in other states with which we have arranged to provide covered services to you. Hospitals, physicians and other providers in these networks are called "in-network providers." A list of in-network providers is available in our LifeWise Connect provider directory. These providers are listed by geographical area, specialty and in alphabetical order to help you select a provider that is right for you. The provider directory also shows which providers you can select as your PCP. You can receive the lower copayment amount on primary care office visit copays by selecting a provider as your Primary Care Provider (PCP) and telling us the name of the PCP any time prior to an office visit. If you are having difficulty choosing an available PCP, contact us and we will assign a PCP to you. See Primary Care Office Visits for more information. We update this directory regularly, but it is subject to change. We suggest that you call us for current information and to verify that your provider and their office location or provider group are included in the LifeWise Connect network before you receive services. Our provider directory is available any time on our website at xxxxxxxxxx.xxx. You may also request a copy of this directory by calling Customer Service at the number located on the back cover or on your LifeWise ID card. In-Network Providers In-network providers provide medical services for a negotiated fee. This fee is the allowed amount for in-network providers. When you receive covered services from an in-network provider, your medical bills will be reimbursed at a higher percentage (the in-network provider benefit level). In-network providers will not charge more than the allowed amount. This means that your portion of the charges for covered services will be lower. If a covered service is not available from an in-network provider, you can receive benefits for services provided by an out-of-network provider at the in-network benefit level. See Prior Authorization for details. Out-of-Network Providers Out-of-network providers are providers that are not part of your network. Your bills will be reimbursed at the lower percentage (the out-of-network benefit level) and the provider may bill you for charges above the allowed am...
