Posted Oct.01, 2009 in General, Other Coverage
UCSF Medical Group and Hill Physicians Medical Group formed a new contractual affiliation to serve the healthcare needs of HMO members whose primary care physician (PCP) is based in the San Francisco area. This new healthcare option becomes effective January 1, 2010.
UCSF Medical Center and UCSF Children’s Hospital will be in both Hill Physicians Medical Group and Brown & Toland Medical Group’s networks after January 1, 2010.
After January 1, 2010, only Hill Physicians Medical Group will market and have UCSF primary care physicians in their network. On that date, Brown & Toland Medical Group will no longer offer UCSF primary care physicians in their network and will begin a ‘referral-only’ type relationship with the specialists at UCSF Medical Group and UCSF Medical Center. All access to UCSF services for Brown & Toland members, will require prior authorization and administrative review. (continue reading…)
