Providers
Key terms
This section explains key terms you’ll see in our
Provider and Pharmacy Online Directory.
- Providers are health care professionals and support providers such as doctors, nurses, pharmacists, therapists, and other people who provide care and services. Services include medical care, long-term services and supports (LTSS), supplies, prescription drugs, equipment and other services.
- The term “providers” also include facilities such as hospitals, clinics, and other places that provide medical services, medical equipment, and long-term services and supports.
- Providers that are a part of our plan's network are called network providers.
- Network providers are the providers that have contracted with us to provide services to members in our plan. The providers in our network generally bill us directly for care they give you. When you see a network provider, you usually pay nothing for covered services.
- A Primary Care Provider (PCP) is a physician, nurse practitioner, or other health care professional who gives you routine health care. Your PCP will keep your medical records and get to know your health needs over time.
- Specialists are doctors who provide health care services for a specific disease or part of the body. There are many kinds of specialists. Here are a few examples:
- Oncologists care for patients with cancer.
- Cardiologists care for patients with heart conditions.
- Orthopedists care for patients with certain bone, joint, or muscle conditions.
- You may need a referral to see a specialist or someone that is not your PCP. A referral means that your primary care provider (PCP) must give you approval before you can see the other someone that is not your PCP. If you don’t get a referral, Molina Dual Options may not cover the service.
- Referrals from your network PCP are not needed for:
- Emergency care;
- Urgently needed care;
- Kidney dialysis services that you get at a Medicare-certified dialysis facility when you are outside the plan’s service area; or
- Services from a women’s health specialist.
- Additionally, if you are eligible to get services from Indian health providers, you may see these providers without a referral. We must pay the Indian health provider for those services even if they are out of our plan’s network.
- More information on referrals is available in Chapter 3 of the Member Handbook.
- You also have access to a Care Coordinator and a Care Team that you choose.
- A Care Coordinator helps you manage your medical providers and services.
- Your Care Team is a group of advocates and providers working together to provide you with medical, behavioral health, psychosocial, social care, and long-term services and supports in the community or in a facility. You are a member of your Care Team, and you can tell us who else you would like to participate. Unless you tell us otherwise, your Care Team will include:
- You
- Your Care Coordinator
- Your Primary Care Provider (PCP)
- Your behavioral health clinician (if you have one)
- Your long-term services and supports (LTSS) providers (if you have them). These include:
- Your Home Again Transition Coordinator
- Your waiver services provider
- Your Community Long Term Care (CLTC) waiver case manager
- A pharmacist, and
- Representatives from the facility where you get care
- Your Care Team can also include the following people, if it is appropriate and if you agree:
- Nurses, specialists, social workers, and other people who can provide expert advice
- Family members
- Other informal caregivers
- Advocates
- State agency or other case managers
- Everyone on the Care Team works together to make sure your care is coordinated. This means that they make sure tests and labs are done once and the results are shared with the appropriate providers. It also means that your PCP should know all medicines you take so that he or she can reduce any negative effects. Your PCP will always get your permission before sharing your medical information with other providers.
Primary Care Provider (PCP)
You can get services from any provider who is in our network and accepting new members.
First, you will need choose a Primary Care Provider.
To choose a PCP, go to the list of providers on page based on your search results and choose a provider:

- who has been recommended by someone you trust, or
- whose offices are easy for you to get to.
- If you want help in choosing a PCP, please call your care coordinator at (855) 735-5831, TTY: 711; 7 days a week, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., local time. The call is free. You can also call Member Services by using the information at the top of the online directory page.
- If you have questions about whether we will pay for any medical service or care that you want or need, call Member Services and ask before you get the service or care.
Long-term services and supports (LTSS)
You may be able to get long-term services and supports (LTSS), such as environmental modification (minor changes to your home), pest control, home delivered meals, and respite care (relief for your primary caregiver, either in an in-patient facility or at your home).
LTSS help for people who need assistance to do everyday tasks like taking a bath, getting dressed, and making food. Most of these services are provided at your home or in your community but could be provided in a nursing home or hospital.
LTSS are available to members who are on certain waiver programs operated by the Community Long Term Care (CLTC) division of Healthy Connections Medicaid. Those waivers are:
- Community Choices waiver
- HIV/AIDS waiver
- Mechanical Ventilator Dependent waiver
Members on different waivers can get different kinds and amounts of LTSS. If you think you need LTSS, you can talk to your care coordinator about how to access them and whether you can join one of these waivers. Your care coordinator can give you information about how to apply for an appropriate waiver, and all of the resources available to you under the plan.
How to identify providers in Molina Dual Options Network
You may need a referral to see someone who is not a Primary Care Provider. There is more information about referrals under the Key Terms section of this Provider and Pharmacy Online Directory Information.
You must get all of your covered services from providers within our network. If you go to providers who are not in Molina Dual Options network (without prior authorization or approval from us), you will have to pay the bill.
“A
prior authorization is an approval from Molina Dual Options before you can get a specific service, drug, or see an out-of-network provider. Molina Dual Options may not cover the service or drug if you don’t get approval.”
The exceptions to this rule are during your first 180 days in our plan or when you need urgent or emergency care or dialysis and cannot get to a provider in the plan, such as when you are away from home. No services are covered outside the United States, except for emergency services requiring hospitalization in Canada or Mexico. You can also go outside the plan for other non-emergency services if Molina Dual Options gives you permission first.
- You may change providers within the network at any time. If you have been going to one network provider, you do not have to keep going to that same provider. All changes made will be in effect on the first day of the following month, with the following exceptions: 1. If the member is calling from the provider’s office, the effective date will be the date of the phone call, 2. If the member is in their first month of enrollment, the effective date will be the first day of the current month.
- Molina Dual Options works with all the providers in our network to accommodate the needs of people with disabilities. As applicable, search results of network providers in this Online Directory include information about the accommodations they provide.
