HealthWorx HMO

Doctors & Specialists

In general, HPSM will only cover services you receive from Medi-Cal providers in HPSM’s network. You are covered for services from a non-network provider in the United States only for medical emergencies, for urgent care outside of the plan’s service area or when HPSM pre-approves coverage for a visit to non-network provider.

Prior authorization of referrals are not required if your doctor refers you to a specialist within the HPSM network. If you need to be referred outside the HPSM provider network, your doctor needs to request approval of coverage before you receive services.

Telemedicine

Doctor's visits by phone or video anytime

Many providers can give you advice over the phone or see you by video.  Telephone and video visits are fully covered by HPSM. Call your primary care provider (PCP)  to check if they provide telephone or video visits. 

If your do not have PCP, or if your PCP does not offer phone or video appointments, you may be able to use Teladoc®, one of HPSM's newest service partners.  Learn more
