An IPA Primary Care Physician shall not seek to have an IPA Member transferred because of the amount of Covered Services required by such Member or because of the physical condition of the IPA Member. All decisions regarding such transfers shall be made as soon as administratively feasible, but no later than thirty (30) days from the date of the written request. Any such removal shall be effective as of the first day of the month for which capitation or payments are made to an IPA Primary Care Physician.
