Your Coverage when traveling out of the area:
You don’t need a referral or prior authorization for emergency services — no matter where you travel. The Healthy Plan covers emergency services outside the network, subject to plan copays, co-insurance and deductibles. If you need emergency care outside the service area, and are unable to get to a plan provider, go to the nearest urgent care or emergency center. It is important to notify Health Choices as soon as possible by calling 833-278-0538. If you require urgent care when you are traveling outside the Live360 service area, you can use a provider in the First Health network. To find a First Health urgent care provider, click on the First Health Network button above.
All follow-up care should be done by a plan provider. If you are out of the area and unable to see a plan provider, call Health Choices at 833-278-0538 for a referral.
Out-of-area Dependents
HSHS is committed to helping your dependents get the health care coverage they need when they need it. Students who attend college outside of the area and children living in communities outside the Live360 service area are common examples of out-of-area dependents. Designated out-of-area dependents have additional providers available to them in the First Health Network.
To receive this benefit, you or your out-of-area dependent must complete and submit the Care Package Form below in Additional Resources before receiving any services.
