Provider Documents & Forms
Members enrolled in our HMO and POS products are required to select a Primary Care Physician (PCP) who acts as the coordinator of care for the patient. Members must contact their PCP prior to making appointments with specialty providers. Upon assessment of the patient needs, the PCP may find it appropriate to refer the patient to other participating specialty providers.
The Health Plan contracts with providers in order to obtain quality care at an affordable price. This enables us to contain premium increases to our membership. All services that can be properly performed by Health Plan providers must be referred in-plan. Services, which are not available through this in-plan network require preauthorization via an out-of-plan referral.
In addition to the Provider Manual and that training that accompanies it, The Health Plan Customer Service Represenatives are always available to assist in any way possible by calling 1.800.624.6961/740.695.7901 in the Ohio Valley/Mountaineer Region and 1.888.830.4370/740.330.4370 in the HomeTown Region.

The Health Plan has devised a form that will provide emergency response personnel and various physicians who may care for the member in event of a hospitalization, with a quick, at-a-glance medical history. Additional information that is important in caring for patients is also included. Emergency response personnel have supported us in the need for this information to be available. We have encouraged our members to complete an EMI form and keep it a location of their choice in their homes.
The availability of a free decal identifying that EMI is available in the home can be found at www.vialoflife.
We hope that you will assist your patients if they need help in completing this form. Please feel free to call the Quality Improvement Department at 800.624.6961, Ext. 7659 or 740.695.7659.
