Some entities are forming networks now in anticipation of becoming a certified network. How can I identify and contact entities that might be forming workers compensation health care networks?
A. You can contact HMOs and preferred provider networks that have enrollees in your area, especially those with which you are already participating, to determine if they intend to obtain certification as workers’ compensation health care networks. If you are already treating injured workers, you might contact the injured workers’ insurance carriers to determine if the insurance carriers intend to form their own network or to learn the names of any groups that are forming networks.
