What if the member is out of the service area and an emergency occurs?
CDPHP members have worldwide emergency coverage. If a true emergency occurs out of the service area, the member should go to the nearest emergency room and seek treatment, and contact his or her primary care physician within 48 hours. If the member is out of the CDPHP service area and has to pay for services at the time of treatment, he or she should forward the medical records, an itemized bill, and proof of payment to CDPHP for reimbursement.
