PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU RECEIVE SERVICES FROM AN OUT-OF-NETWORK PROVIDER, YOUR COINSURANCE AMOUNT WILL BE APPLIED TO THE OUT-OF-NETWORK RATE TO DETERMINE HOW MUCH WE PAY FOR COVERED SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE OUT-OF-NETWORK PROVIDER.

The Out-of-Network Rate is equivalent to a percentage of the 2002 Medicare RBRVS fee schedule for physician charges. The fee schedule shall be based upon the geographic area in which the Health Plan offers coverage and not upon the location of the provider. If the 2002 Medicare RBRVS fee schedule does not contain a reimbursement level for a specific code, St. Anthony s RBRVS will be used in its place. For CPT codes developed after 2002 Medicare RBRVS fee schedule, the Health Plan shall assign a reimbursement valuation on an annual basis consistent with the percentage methodology described. If none of the above procedures yields a corresponding RBRVS rate for a particular service, the Health Plan shall pay 50% of billed charges. Non-Participating Facility Fees. The Out-of-Network Rate is equivalent to a percentage of the Medicare reimbursement schedule for facility charges. Inpatient rates shall be set according to then-current DRG s ( Diagnosis Related Group ).
