Once you are enrolled, you will receive a Health Net member ID card and a packet of new member materials. We will call you to welcome you to the plan, answer any questions you may have, and help you start using your benefits immediately.

An Obstetrician/Gynecologist or nurse midwife (please refer to the Health Net AIM EOC for details) will provide all of your prenatal care. Once you are enrolled with Health Net, you will choose a Primary Care Physician to coordinate any medical care you require that is not related to your pregnancy. You can call your Primary Care Physician for all your health care needs, wherever you are, 24 hours a day. You also have access to Health Net's 24-hour Member Services Department and 24-hour nurse advice line.

If you need urgent care, you can call your doctor 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Emergency care is a covered benefit. In an emergency, call your Primary Care Physician if possible. He or she can help decide the best way to get treatment and can arrange for prompt emergency room care. If you have an emergency and it is not possible to contact your Primary Care Physician, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
