Providers

Our mission and values guide the way we treat our providers, members and each other. They are at the heart of all we do.

Beacon Health Options serves more than 40 million people across all 50 states. We welcome your continued commitment to participate in our network and encourage new providers to join us in our mission to help people live their lives to the fullest potential.

CENTERED AROUND YOU AND YOUR PATIENTS
A better quality of life for patients starts with you, the providers at the core of their health care delivery. Our streamlined care and reporting solutions save you time and energy so you can put the focus back on your patients.

Beacon provides clinical staff coverage 24 hours/day, 7 days/week, 365 days/year to respond to all member and provider calls, including emergent, urgent and routine calls.

All of Beacon’s UM decisions are based on Beacon’s Level of Care criteria (medical necessity). Financial incentives based on the number of adverse determinations or denial of payments by any individual involved in UM decision making is prohibited.

  • Inform Members that Beacon does not offer any financial incentives to its contracted Provider community for limiting, denying, or not delivering medically necessary treatment to members.
