Know before you go.

Surprises in life are a good thing—unless the surprise is hidden medical costs. Health insurance can be confusing, and we're here to help you understand how your insurance company will pay for the services you receive. So you can be prepared for what comes next.

Reach out to your insurance company to confirm that the facility or physician providing your care is a participating provider on your insurance contract.

The following insurance companies participate with one or more of the doctors or facilities within the Health First network.

Medicare.

Most Health First providers only accept Health First Health Plan's Medicare Advantage program. However, we will accept other non-participating Medicare Advantage insurance plans under the following circumstances: 

• For all emergency-related services.

• For all elective services provided the patient has appropriate out of network benefit coverage and is willing to pay the out of pocket amount.

   

• For all elective services that the non-participating Medicare Advantage insurance plan will authorize, once out of network benefits have been verified.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your insurance provider for coverage details. 

CareCredit.
