If a patient does not select a PCP within the allotted time frame, what will the patient default mechanism be?
Patients who do not select a primary care physician will be assigned to one by the state. Criteria used in making the assignment are previous or existing patient-provider relationships, family-provider relationships, and geographic access. Patients who are dissatisfied with their assignment may request a change by contacting the patient enrollment broker. Patients can change their PCP up to four times per year or at any other time for cause.
