Out-of-network liability

What if I received services from an out-of-network provider?

If you receive services from a provider that isn’t on your network, you may be responsible for more charges than had you received the same services from an in-network provider. Out-of-network providers may bill you directly for charges that aren’t covered by your plan. To review your plan materials, log in to your account online.

Depending on the health care professional, the service could cost more or not be paid for at all by your plan. Charging this extra amount is called balance billing. In cases like these, you will be responsible for paying for what your plan does not cover. Balance billing may be waived for emergency services received at an out-of-network facility.
