Referrals, Authorizations, Out-of-Network
- You'll never need referrals to receive care from in-network providers.
- You may need approval ahead of time (prior authorization) for certain services, procedures, and out-of-network providers before you get care.
- You'll receive written notice of our approval or denial. You can check the status of your request anytime at Quartz MyChart.
- If you're ever unsure whether a service, test, or procedure requires prior authorization, please feel free to contact us for help. You may call 844-644-3455 before the appointment. To learn more and download forms, visit our Provider Prior Authorization Resources page.
Emergency and Urgent Care
If you need emergency or urgent care out-of-network, please seek care at the nearest medical facility. For serious or life-threatening situations, call 911 right away. Contact your primary care provider if you need help determining whether you should go to an emergency department or urgent care. Follow-up care will come from an in-network provider unless you receive our approval first.
Mental, Behavioral Health and Substance Abuse
Well-living isn't just about your physical health—Quartz is here to help support your mental health and emotional well-being, too. Our Behavioral Health Care Management team is here to help you understand treatment options and connect you to care if you have questions about coverage or need help figuring out where to start. Please call 800-683-2300 to get started.
24-Hour Nurseline
Contact your primary care provider for after-hours or out-of-area care instructions.
Virtual Visits
When you're sick or injured, you want care right away. Take advantage of virtual visits technology to access 24/7 on-demand care for any non-emergency needs. Virtual visits connect you to an expert health care provider via your smartphone, tablet, or computer webcam. Depending on the situation, the provider can offer a diagnosis, suggest follow-up care, and/or prescribe medication.
