Open Enrollment: Get the Healthcare Coverage You Deserve

Now more than ever your health matters. We want to make sure you enroll in the right healthcare plan & get the coverage that you and your family deserve. Our advice line is available to speak further with you about all of your options when seeking coverage through BASS.

Below we've included two of the most common questions we receive from patients, if you have any further questions call (925) 627-3424 to speak with one of our insurance specialists today! 

Are my preferred doctors and other medical service providers still covered?

Some employers change health insurance companies, plans or provider networks to better manage costs. This can mean that employees' preferred doctors and hospitals may no longer in the provider networks available to them.

  • Find out which of your new plan options accept your current health care providers.

Do any of the plans offer new or expanded options for receiving care that might be beneficial to me?

Where patients receive medical services can make a huge difference in their out-of-pocket costs. Today, nearly 64 percent of employers offer telemedicine consultations with doctors or other care providers when appropriate, which are considerably less expensive than in-person doctor's office, urgent care clinic or emergency room visits. To find out if a doctors office offers consults via telemedicine, please call that office directly as telemedicine services may not be available at all locations yet.

BASS Insurance

Although every BASS provider has their own unique healthcare plan participation, BASS Medical Group is contracted with many commercial insurance carriers (also known as PPO’s) such as Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield of California, Cigna, Healthnet, Tricare, and United Healthcare, just to name a few.
Individual plan types vary by payer and employer group so it’s best to check participation with your carrier before booking an appointment.
