Out-of-network usage

Using out-of-network health care providers

You may see health care providers (doctors, hospitals, medical supply companies, pharmacies) outside the PriorityMedicareSM network but your costs may be higher. Your costs may vary when your plan is provided through an employer.
  • You pay 100% of the cost of Medicare-covered plan medical services received outside our network until you have paid a $500 deductible. Note: If you receive emergency or urgent care, post-stabilization care or dialysis outside our network, these services will be considered in-network.
  • Depending on the plan you're enrolled in after you meet the $500 deductible you'll pay 20% or 30% coinsurance for covered medical services received from out-of-network health care providers. This means you pay 20% or 30% of the costs and your plan pays 70% or 80% of the cost.
  • To find out what you'd pay for prescriptions from out-of-network providers, refer to the details of each of our PriorityMedicare plans. Start at Compare Plans. (For our prescription drug-only coverage plan, go to PriorityMedicare Rx.)
