VNS Health Total: Urgently Needed Services (Urgent Care)
This is not emergency care. This is care provided at an urgent care center or by an out-of-network provider because a network provider is unavailable.

Everything you need is all in one place
Helpful app simplifies family caregiving by combining your loved one’s insurance benefits and medical records into one user-friendly platform while enhancing your caregiving skills
Urgently needed services are provided to treat a nonemergency, unforeseen medical illness, injury, or condition that requires immediate medical care but, given the circumstances, may not be possible, or is unreasonable, to obtain services from network providers.
Examples of urgently needed services that the plan must cover out of network are:
Immediate care is needed on the weekend
Your loved one is temporarily outside the service area of the plan
Services must be immediately needed and medically necessary. If it is unreasonable given the circumstances to immediately obtain medical care from a network provider then the plan will cover the urgently needed services from a provider out-of-network.
