Member FAQs

Do I need to select a Primary Care Physician?

As a GlobalHealth member, you must use plan providers to get your covered services. This starts with choosing a Primary Care Physician from the list of physicians in the Provider Directory or the Provider Search tool. If you do not choose a PCP, one will automatically be assigned to you.

How to get the most from your health plan?

Here are some examples

  1. See or call your Primary Care Physician (PCP) first for all your medical care. Your Primary Care Physician will see that you get the care you need, whether in his/her office or from another doctor.
  2. If you or a covered member of your family, need same-day urgent care, call your
    Primary Care Physician's office for medical direction.
  3. If you need emergency care, go immediately to the nearest medical facility for care. Call your Primary Care Physician within 48 hours of receiving the care.
    Emergency care is covered when it is for a medical emergency. An emergency is
    based on your presenting symptoms arising from any injury, illness or condition
    manifesting itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain)
    such that a reasonable and prudent layperson could expect the absence of
    medical attention to result in
    1. serious jeopardy to the patient's health (or in the
      case of a pregnant woman, serious jeopardy to the health of the fetus);
    2. serious impairment to bodily function; or
    3. serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part.

Follow-up care after an emergency is also covered when provided or arranged by your Primary Care Physician.
