Harbor Health
Transition of Care / Continuity of Care Form
Request authorization for transitional care benefits or continuity of care from providers that are not in network under your new health plan
Completing this form
Please complete this form if the patient is currently receiving ongoing medical care from providers that are not in-network under your new health plan, or has recently transferred from the Harbor Health Insurance Company (HHIC) network. In certain circumstances, benefits are available to pay for care from an out-of-network provider for a new member who is pregnant or in the middle of specific medical services. This allows the member to temporarily receive care from an out-of-network provider in the new network at the benefit or expense covered. For additional information, visit harborhealth.com and the Transition of Care Member Guide.
Important Note
Until Harbor Health has contacted a new provider, established a contract, and issued an approval for your TOC request, you will be responsible for the full cost of any non-emergency care you receive from the out-of-network provider.
Transition of Care coverage applies only if the provider agrees to comply with HHIC’s contractual terms, including prior authorization requirements, reimbursement at an agreed upon reimbursement rate, and adherence to quality and utilization standards.
