BadgerCare Plus Member Handbook Welcome to Dean Health Plan Welcome to Dean Health Plan. As a member of Dean Health Plan (DHP), you will receive all your health care from DHP doctors and hospitals. See the DHP provider directory for a list of these providers. You may also call our Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301. Providers not accepting new patients are marked in the provider directory. Thank you for choosing DHP as your HMO. Keeping you healthy is important to us. This is your handbook. Please read it carefully. The handbook will help you understand your coverage with DHP, and how to use our services. The first things you should do are: Read your handbook carefully. Put your handbook in a safe place, but keep it available for quick reference. Your handbook has information that you and your family need to know. Call the Customer Care Center if you have any questions. You can call the Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301. Visit /badgercare. Your ForwardHealth ID Card Always carry your ForwardHealth ID card with you, and show it every time you get care. You may have problems getting care or prescriptions if you do not have your card with you. Also, bring any other health insurance cards you may have. Remember to always give health care providers your ForwardHealth ID card. Please contact your Income Maintenance Consortia if: Any information on your card is incorrect. You have a question about your eligibility. Call Member Services at (800) 362-3002 if your ForwardHealth ID card is lost or stolen. Primary Care Provider (PCP) It is important to call your PCP first when you need care. Your PCP is the provider that will manage all your health care. If you think you need to see another provider or a specialist, ask your PCP. Your PCP will help you decide if you need to see another provider, and give you a referral. Remember, you must get written approval from DHP before you see another provider. You can choose your PCP from those available. Note: For women you may also see a women's health specialist (for example an OB/GYN doctor or a nurse midwife) without a referral, in addition to choosing your PCP. There are HMO providers who are sensitive to the needs of many cultures. To choose a PCP, or to change to a different PCP, call our Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301. Making an Appointment With Your Primary Care Provider Once you are a member of DHP, you can start seeing your PCP right away. If you have not picked a PCP or clinic yet, call the Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301. 2

Missed Appointments It is important that you and your family keep all your health care appointments. If you are not able to keep the appointment, call your provider s office and let them know as soon as possible. Otherwise, the provider may refuse to reschedule your appointment. Changing Your Provider If you are unhappy with the provider you are seeing, you can pick a different provider at any time. Call the Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301, and they will help you choose a new provider. NOTE: If you see a provider that is not a DHP provider without an approved referral from the HMO, you may be billed for those services. Second Medical Opinions A second medical opinion on recommended treatments may be appropriate in some cases. Contact your provider or our Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301 for information. Getting a Referral Sometimes you may need to see another provider. Your PCP and DHP must say it is okay, and give the other provider a written referral. You are required to use DHP providers. You need a written referral from the HMO to see a provider not associated with DHP. DHP will mail you a copy of the referral letting you know if it was approved or denied. You must have a copy of the approved referral to have coverage. Please Read this Section Carefully YOU AND YOUR FAMILY NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY. Learn what to do before an emergency occurs. Emergency Care Emergency care is care that is needed right away. This may be caused by an injury or sudden illness. Here are examples of Emergency Care: Choking Trouble breathing Serious broken bones Unconsciousness Severe or unusual bleeding Suspected poisoning Suspected heart attack Suspected stroke Severe pain Severe burns Prolonged or repeated seizures Convulsions If you need emergency care, go to a Dean Health Plan provider for help if you can. BUT, if the emergency is severe, go to the nearest provider (hospital, doctor or clinic). You may want to call 911 or your local police or fire department emergency services if the emergency is severe. 3

BadgerCare Plus Member Handbook Reporting Emergency Care from a Non-Dean Health Plan Provider If you must go to a non-dhp hospital or provider, call DHP at (800) 279-1301 as soon as you can and tell us what happened. This is important so we can help you get follow-up care. Remember, hospital emergency rooms are for true emergencies only. Call your provider or our 24-hour emergency number at (800) 576-8773 before you go to the emergency room, unless your emergency is severe. urgent Care Urgent care is care you need sooner than a routine doctor s visit.

How to Get Medical Care When You Are Away From Home Follow these rules if you need medical care but are too far away from home to go to your assigned PCP or clinic. For Severe Emergencies, Go to the Nearest Hospital, Clinic or Doctor For urgent or routine care away from home, you must get approval from us to go to a different provider, clinic or hospital. This includes children who are spending time away from home with a parent or relative. Call us at (800) 279-1301 for approval to go to a different provider, clinic or hospital. After hours, you can call Dean On Call, our 24-hour nurse line at (800) 57-NURSE or (800) 576-8773. Out-of-State Services Wisconsin BadgerCare Plus and DHP cover services provided only in the United States, Canada and Mexico. If you travel outside of Wisconsin and need emergency services, health care providers can treat you and send claims to DHP. You may have copayments for emergency services provided outside Wisconsin, but the charges for Medicaid covered services will be no more than charges for services in the network. Routine care is not covered when you are outside of Wisconsin. Pregnant Women and Deliveries If you become pregnant, please let Dean Health Plan and your Income Maintenance Consortia know right away. This is to make sure you get the extra care you need. You may also not have copays when you are pregnant. If you become pregnant and are a Core Plan member, please notify the HMO Enrollment Specialist at (800) 291-2002. Pregnancy and delivery are not covered under your Core Plan so call the Enrollment Specialist right away. You must go to a DHP hospital to have your baby.

You may also wish to pick a provider for your child before you give birth. We will be able to help you pick a provider for your child. Before you travel outside of Wisconsin, please call the Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301 to find out how to get health care services when you are away from home. 5

BadgerCare Plus Member Handbook When You May Be Billed For Services It is very important to follow the rules when you get medical care so you are not billed for services. You must receive your care from DHP providers and hospitals unless you have our approval to go somewhere else. The only exception is for severe emergencies. If you travel outside of Wisconsin and need emergency services, health care providers can treat you and send claims to DHP. You may have copayments for emergency services provided outside of Wisconsin, but the charges for Medicaid covered services will be no more than the charges for services in the network. DHP does not cover any service, including emergency services, provided outside of the United States, Canada and Mexico. If you need emergency services while in Canada or Mexico, DHP will cover the service only if the provider or hospital s bank is in the United States. Other services may be covered with HMO approval if the provider has a United States bank. Please call DHP if you receive emergency services outside the United States. Copayments Under the BadgerCare Plus Standard and Core Plan, the HMO and its providers and subcontractors may bill you for nominal copayments. The following members are exempt from copayments: Medicaid SSI members Nursing home residents If You Are Billed Under BadgerCare Plus Standard Plan if you receive a bill for services, call our Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301. You do not have to pay for covered services (other than a required copayment) that are provided by a BadgerCare Plus certified provider and that DHP is required to provide you unless prior authorization is denied and you are told there will be a charge for the service before it is provided. Generally, charging a member for a non-covered service is allowed, except for certain non-covered services or activities related to covered services, liked missed appointments, telephone calls and translation services. Under the BadgerCare Plus Benchmark and Core Plans, the HMO and its providers and subcontractors may bill you for deductibles for covered services that are provided by a BadgerCare Plus certified provider. You may request non-covered services from providers, and providers may collect payment for non-covered services from you if you accept responsibility for payment and make payment arrangements with the provider. Providers may bill you up to their usual and customary charges for non-covered services. Other Insurance If you have other insurance in addition to DHP, you must tell your PCP or other provider. Your health care provider must bill your other insurance before billing Dean Health Plan. If your DHP provider does not accept your other insurance, call the HMO Enrollment Specialist at (800) 291-2002. The Enrollment Specialist can tell you how to match your HMO enrollment with your other insurance so you can use both insurance plans. Pregnant women Members under 19 years of age who are members of a federally recognized tribe Members under 19 years of age with incomes at or below 100 percent of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) 6

HealthCheck The HealthCheck Program is available to members under the age of 21 (not covered for BadgerCare Plus Core Plan members). The HealthCheck program covers complete health checkups. These checkups are very important for children s health. Your child may look and feel well, yet may have a health problem. Your provider wants to see your children for regular checkups, not just when they are sick. The HealthCheck program has three purposes: To find and treat children s health problems early for those under age 21 To let you know about the special health services your child can receive To make your children (under 21) eligible for some health care not otherwise covered The HealthCheck program covers the care for any health problems found during the checkup including medical care, eye care and dental care. The HealthCheck checkup includes: A health and developmental history Physical exam Hearing and vision test Dental screening Blood and urine lab tests (including blood lead level testing when needed) Complete immunizations (shots) DHP will help arrange for transportation for HealthCheck visits for Standard Plan members. Please call our Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301. Ask your child s PCP when your child should have his/ her next HealthCheck exam or call our Customer Care Center at (800) 279-1301 for more information.

If You Move If you are planning to move or have moved to a different county, contact your Income Maintenance Consortia.

An Enrollment Specialist will help you choose an HMO that serves your area. HMO Exemptions An HMO exemption means you are not required to join an HMO to receive your health care benefits. Most exemptions are granted for only a short period of time so you can complete a course of treatment before you are enrolled in an HMO. If you think you need an exemption from HMO enrollment, call the HMO Enrollment Specialist at (800) 291-2002 for more information. 7
