“Managed care” means that your health insurance company may direct you to a specific doctor or doctors’ group for the diagnosis and treatment of your cancer. You are responsible for knowing and following the guidelines of your managed care plan.
You should read your insurance benefits book carefully. Inside, you will find instructions on how to get medical treatment in agreement with the insurance plan. Know what services require prior approval from your Primary Care Physician (PCP) or pre-certification from your insurance company.
You are responsible for paying any deductible, co-pays or co-insurance.
If you want information about estimated professional fees, please ask the GCS representative at the front desk.
