Health Net Medi-Cal Member Services Department
Back to previous page
To ensure appropriate coverage of medical services for Medi-Cal members, Health Net requires the provision of timely responses and accurate information. If prompt and accurate information is not provided, a member may misuse the program, resulting in medical services not being covered. To avoid these problems, Health Net directs inquiries from members to Health Net's Medi-Cal Member Services Department. Inquiries from providers are directed to the Health Net regional provider network administrator where one is available.
The Health Net Medi-Cal Member Services Department ensures that translation services are available for members when they call. In addition, the Health Net Member Handbook and other member-informing materials are translated into the required threshold languages.
Health Net's Medi-Cal Member Services Department handles telephone calls and correspondence from members. Problems are forwarded to Health Net management. This department is responsible for:
- Medi-Cal questions and explanations.
- Information about access to and delivery of care.
- Professional and hospital services, bills and claims.
- Member problems and inquiries.
- Address changes.
- Identification card requests.
- Primary care physician (PCP) selection and transfer requests.
- Handling complaints about Health Net programs or staff.
The Health Net Medi-Cal Member Services Department's 24-hour toll-free number is printed on the back of the member's identification card. While telephone assistance is the PCP's responsibility, the Health Net Medi-Cal Member Services Department can assist members in reaching their PCP when needed. Health Net's Medi-Cal Member Services representatives can provide the telephone number for the member's PCP, or the call can be routed to the Health Net Advice Nurse Telephone Triage program.
