Network Blue New England
Network Blue New England is a Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts health plan with a group of affiliated physicians similar to a health maintenance organization. When you join Network Blue, you and each of your enrolled family members must choose a primary care physician (PCP) from the directory of network doctors. Your PCP will coordinate all of your medical care. You may choose a different PCP for each family member (for example, an internist for you and a pediatrician for your children).
Network Blue New England provides members with a range of network benefits, including routine and preventive services, and hospital care. There are no deductibles and no claim forms.
When you receive care in the Network Blue New England network, you are covered in full, in and out of the hospital. You pay only $15 for office visits or $50 for emergency room care (thdefis fee is waived if you are immediately hospitalized). You receive full coverage for routine physicals after a copayment.
Your PCP will be part of a team of specialists affiliated with the health center or hospital where your PCP practices. If your PCP determines that you need to see a specialist, your PCP will refer you to a specialist within the plan network.
If you require hospitalization, your PCP (and specialist, if necessary) will coordinate your admission, and you will be covered at 100%.
