Y0026_201155_C i EmblemHealth Medicare VIP Prime HMO and HMO-POS Provider Directory Section 1 – Introduction This directory provides a list of our plan’s VIP Prime network providers. To get detailed information about your health care coverage, please see your Evidence of Coverage (EOC). Please read this section if you are a member of EmblemHealth VIP Premier (HMO) Group and EmblemHealth Group Access Rx (PPO). You will have to choose one of our network providers listed in this directory to be your Primary Care Provider (PCP). Generally, you must get your health care services from your PCP. The term “PCP” will be used throughout this directory. Your PCP is your primary care provider who can provide and coordinate all of your care, including specialist visits, hospital admissions, and more. You may choose your PCP by using the provider directory or getting help from Customer Service. The “network providers” listed in this directory have agreed to provide you with your health care/vision services. You may go to any of our network providers listed in this directory; however, some services may require a referral or prior authorization. If you have been going to one network provider, you are not required to continue to go to that same provider. In some limited instances, you may get covered services from non- network providers. With the exception of emergency care at an emergency room, you will need a referral or prior authorization before seeking services from a non-network provider. Note that in the case of an emergency, you should go to the nearest emergency room. Please check your Evidence of Coverage for more details on specific referral requirements and more details about your plan benefits. You must use network providers except in emergency or urgent care situations or for out-of-area renal dialysis or other services. If you obtain routine care from out-of- network providers, neither Medicare nor our plan will be responsible for the costs. Please read this section if you are a member of EmblemHealth VIP Go (HMO-POS). If you are enrolled in EmblemHealth VIP Go (HMO-POS), you may receive some covered services from out-of-network providers if those providers agree to accept our plan’s terms and conditions of payment. You also do not need a referral to see your provider. You are able to see out-of-network providers for the many services under your Point-of- Service (POS) benefit including: • Primary care • Specialty care • Inpatient and outpatient hospital services • Durable medical equipment and supplies • Renal dialysis • Skilled nursing facilities • Home health care • Others ii EmblemHealth Medicare VIP Prime HMO and HMO-POS Provider Directory As a member of the HMO-POS plan, you do not have to choose a network provider to be your primary care provider (PCP). Choosing a PCP is an option. We always recommend that you have a PCP to help coordinate all your health care needs, including specialist visits, hospital admissions, and more. You may choose your PCP by using the provider directory or getting help from Customer Service. In some cases, excluding emergency and urgent care, it may cost you more to get care from out-of-network providers. You must use network providers for some services; for example, inpatient and outpatient mental health, and dental and supplemental vision services. For more information about when you can use out-of-network providers and what your costs will be, please look in your Evidence of Coverage. What to do if you get a bill from a provider? There may be times when you get a bill from a provider for the full cost of medical care you received. In many cases, you should send this bill to us instead of paying it. We will look at the bill and decide whether the services should be covered. If we decide they should be covered, we will pay the provider directly. You may also get services from out-of-area providers in situations where emergency or urgently needed care is needed. Our plan covers emergency and urgently needed care anywhere in the world. If you experience a medical emergency, call for help or go to the nearest emergency room or hospital. Call for an ambulance if you need it. You do not need to get an approval or a referral first. After the emergency is over, you can get follow-up care until your condition is stable. Your follow-up care will be covered by our plan. If your emergency care is provided by out-of-network providers, and your plan does not have out-of-network benefits, we will try to arrange for network providers to take over your care as soon as your medical condition and the circumstances allow. What is the service area for EmblemHealth Medicare HMO and HMO-POS plans? The counties in our service area are listed below: Albany, Bronx, Broome, Columbia, Delaware, Dutchess, Greene, Kings, Nassau, New York, Orange, Putnam, Queens, Rensselaer, Richmond, Rockland, Saratoga, Schenectady, Suffolk, Sullivan, Ulster, Warren, Washington, and Westchester.

You can find a provider by looking in this directory or going online at emblemhealth.com/ medicare. We do everything possible to keep our directories up to date, but our network can change from time to time.

You can do this by contacting the provider at the phone number listed in the directory. If you have questions about our plan or need help selecting a PCP or finding another provider close to where you live, please call our Customer Service Department at 877-344-7364, 8 am to 8 pm, seven days a week.

  • 2019 Community Health Needs Assessment Survey
    COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT 2019 To all New Yorkers: As New York City’s public health care system, our goal is to empower you to live your healthiest life. Clinical care starts with you and your health care team, but we recognize that many factors impact your health beyond medical care alone – a safe home environment, space to be physically active, access to fresh food, even exposure to daily stress and poor social well-being can impact your health outcomes. To assess and prioritize the greatest health needs of the neighborhoods and communities we serve, NYC Health + Hospitals conducted a comprehensive and inclusive process to complete this Community Health Needs Assessment for 2019. The findings represent the voices of the patients we serve, clinical experts and community partners, and are backed by quantitative data analysis. Recognizing that the health needs of patients coming through our hospital doors may not represent the wider health needs of the community, we embarked on an extensive stakeholder engagement process led by OneCity Health, who built new relationships with community stakeholders through the Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) program. For the first time, we conducted a system-wide assessment to identify priorities that need to be addressed city-wide and will allow us to maximize our resources in response. We believe that we should reliably deliver high-quality services and that patients should have a consistent experience at our facilities. Since our 2016 assessment, we have worked tirelessly to address significant health needs of the community and to make it easier for our patients to access our services: • We opened and renovated dozens of community-based health centers to expand access to primary and preventive care.

  • Standpoints on Psychiatric Deinstitutionalization Alix Rule Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degre
    Standpoints on Psychiatric Deinstitutionalization Alix Rule Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 Alix Rule All rights reserved ABSTRACT Standpoints on Psychiatric Deinstitutionalization Alix Rule Between 1955 and 1985 the United States reduced the population confined in its public mental hospitals from around 600,000 to less than 110,000. This dissertation provides a novel analysis of the movement that advocated for psychiatric deinstitutionalization. To do so, it reconstructs the unfolding setting of the movement’s activity historically, at a number of levels: namely, (1) the growth of private markets in the care of mental illness and the role of federal welfare policy; (2) the contested role of states as actors in driving the process by which these developments effected changes in the mental health system; and (3) the context of relevant events visible to contemporaries. Methods of computational text analysis help to reconstruct this social context, and thus to identify the closure of key opportunities for movement action. In so doing, the dissertation introduces an original method for compiling textual corpora, based on a word-embedding model of ledes published by The New York Times from 1945 to the present. The approach enables researchers to achieve distinct, but equally consistent, actor-oriented descriptions of the social world spanning long periods of time, the forms of which are illustrated here. Substantively, I find that by the early 1970s, the mental health system had disappeared from public view as a part of the field of general medicine — and with it a target around which the existing movement on behalf of the mentally ill might have effectively reorganized itself.

  • RWJ Medicine • Fall 2018 • Interior
    A PUBLICATION FOR ALUMNI & FRIENDS OF RUTGERS ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON MEDICAL SCHOOL FALL • 2018 LETTER FROM THE DEAN Dear Friends, erving as the dean of Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School has been one of the profound honors of my professional career. So it is with mixed emotions that I share the news that I have accept- Sed a new role as the president of Rush University in Chicago. My tenure here has been a remarkable and wonderful journey. Welcoming new classes, celebrating the Match, and graduating new physicians who will carry the proud Robert Wood Johnson Medical School experience across the country and globe have been exhilarating. There have been many successes, including the launch of the RWJBarnabas Health and Rutgers University partnership to jointly operate a world-class academic health system, improving the financial health of our school, and navigating the changing health care environment, with a dedicated sense of purpose and resilience. I was reminded of that strong sense of purpose when I received the final letter from the Liaison Committee on Medical Education certifying our eight-year reaccreditation. That pattern of success is reflected in each of our missions. The clinical enterprise has expanded services, and significantly improved the quality and safety of the patient experience, with the ambulatory accreditation from the Joint Commission. That journey was part of a transformational change across the practice and the entire medical school community. The recognition of quality extended to the community health mission. The Eric B. Chandler Health Center was repeatedly recognized for the quality of care that our faculty and staff provide as a Federally Qualified Health Center.
