Special Features of the Access+ HMO Plan...
Self-Referral to Specialist - With Access+ Specialist you can go directly to a specialist or other physician in the same medical group or IPA as your Personal Physician, without a referral. When you self-refer, your copayment will be $35/$50 per covered office visit (depending on which plan option you select). To use the Access+ Specialist option, you must belong to a medical group or IPA that is an Access+ Specialist provider group.
Self-referrals to Gynecological Exams and OB/GYN Visits - Women may go to directly to an OB/GYN or family preactice physician in the same medical group or IPA as their Personal Physician for obstetrical/gynecological services - including annual gynecological exams - without a referral.
Money-back Guarantee -
Blue Shield's member feedback program, Access+ Satisfaction, will refund your usual office visit copayment and provide a postage-paid postcard for your comments if you are ever dissatisfied with the service you receive during a covered office visit with an HMO network physician.
