HCP’s Preferred Specialists
Referring patients for office-based Specialty Care has never been easier when using HCP’s Preferred Specialist Physicians, which include thousands of experts across New York City and Long Island. These high-quality doctors have been chosen for their excellent track record of being strong providers of outpatient care. They have agreed to work closely with all of our PCPs to provide great care to our patients, preferentially providing care in the most cost-effective settings (generally outside of a hospital system).
Facilitate the Urgent Needs of Your Patients
Call Customer Service when delays will clearly impact a patient’s outcome – find a specialist who can see a patient today, consult with a Medical Director, and find alternative cost-effective sites of care.
Schedule a Call with an HCP Medical Director
Our Medical Directors are available for a curbstone consultation or to complete a Peer-to-Peer discussion, which can help avoid unnecessary delays in care.
Important Information on Coverage Decisions
Each day, HealthCare Partners’ Utilization Management (UM) Department makes decisions on many health insurance claims. These decisions are based only on the appropriateness of care and the existence of coverage.
HealthCare Partners does not reward providers or other individuals for issuing denials of coverage and does not offer financial incentives to UM staff based on decisions that promote the underutilization of services.
HealthCare Partners is committed to ensuring members have the care and services they need.
