Transfer of Members Hospitalized Out of Area

Provider Type

  • Physicians
  • Hospitals
  • Participating Physician Groups (PPG)
  • Ancillary

Occasionally, a Health Net member is hospitalized at a participating or non-participating out-of-area facility. This type of hospitalization is covered if the member requires emergency care. If an emergency requires admission or long-term care, the member must notify Health Net or the participating physician group (PPG) as soon as possible. Health Net or the PPG monitors the member's treatment and transfers the member, when possible, to a participating facility in the Health Net or PPG's service area. Transfer is usually by ground or air ambulance, although some members may be safely transported by other less costly means.
