If Blue Cross receives this request on the day following the 31st day of life, you must complete the 1-50 Small Group Employee Application and send it to Blue Cross. The effective date of coverage will be delayed for 12 months. The application is subject to medical review by an underwriter for approval. *Your employer must be notified of any change to your coverage before sending this application to Blue Cross. Q : How long can my children remain on my contract ? A : An existing dependent child may remain on the Subscriber contract if one of the following conditions are met : Unmarried Children to the 19th birthday. Unmarried Children from the 19th to the 24th birthday who qualify as dependents for federal income tax purposes and who are full time students with verification of student enrollment from the registrar's office of a college with a seal.

Q : Where can I get a list of physicians or hospitals that participate in the Prudent Buyer (PPO) network ?

A : If you are a CaliforniaCare (HMO) Plan Member, you can contact the Customer Service Department to request to change your CaliforniaCare provider. Q : How can I get referred to a specialist ? A : For Prudent Buyer (PPO) Members : If you select a specialist that participates in the Prudent Buyer Network, a referral is not required. If you select a specialist that does not participate in the Prudent Buyer Provider Network, your personal financial costs will be considerably higher than when you use participating providers. You will have to pay any part of a provider's bill which is over what we allow in benefits for non-participating providers. For CaliforniaCare (HMO) Members : If you need specialty care which cannot be provided by your Primary Care Physician at your Medical Group, your Primary Care Physician will arrange to send you to a specialist (within your Medical Group whenever possible) or to a facility outside of your Medical Group. Female CaliforniaCare members may self-refer to an OB/GYN within their Participating Medical Group (PMG) or Independent Physicians Association (IPA) without first obtaining a referral from their Primary Care Physician. If you are referred, your Primary Care Physician will give you a completed "Authorization for Referral Services" form which specifies what treatment or services your physician authorizes. Take this form to the health care provider to whom you have been referred on the appointment date indicated on the authorization form, and that provider will fill in the appropriate parts and will send it back to your Medical Group. If you do not receive the authorization form, please ask for it from your Primary Care Physician or CaliforniaCare Coordinator. Remember : payment will only be made for the number of visits and the medical care that is specifically authorized by your Primary Care Physician. Before obtaining any other care, be sure to check with your Primary Care Physician to make sure that such additional care will be authorized. You are responsible for paying for services rendered that are not authorized by your Primary Care Physician. Q : How can I get a claim form so I can submit my doctor's bill to Blue Cross ? A : Open the Patient Claim Form. Print this form on your printer. Follow the instruction on the form and send it to Blue Cross or contact the Customer Service Department to have a claim form mailed to you. Q : What address do I send medical claim forms to ?
