What is Beech Street?
Beech Street PPO is a national network. It has doctors of all specialties, hospitals, clinics, laboratories, and diagnostic facilities enrolled to accept a contracted payment from Stirling and Stirling for services. Using www.beechstreet.com missionaries can find providers and facilities near where they are. You can also call 1.800.877.1444 to find or check on a participating provider or facility. The phone number and address is on the new benefit cards. Do I need a referral to go to a specialist? No, a referral is not needed to see a specialist. You can schedule to see a specialist yourself. It is often easier and quicker to get an appointment with a specialist when the primary care physician “refers” or calls to make the appointment. A quality health care model has the primary care physician knowing everything about the patients health, assisting to connect the patient to the most appropriate specialist(s), and then working together with the specialist(s). This helps avoid such thing
