Dear Physicians:  I encourage you to take advantage of this month’s featured members-only benefit. The California Medical Association’s (CMA) Center for Economic Services has published updated profiles on each of the major payors in California including Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield of California, CIGNA, Health Net, UnitedHealthcare, Medicare/Noridian and Medi-Cal. Each profile includes key information on health plan market penetration; a description of the plan’s dispute resolution process; and the name and contact numbers for medical directors, provider relations, and other key contacts. Don’t waste your time searching the internet for this information – members can download CMA’s Payor Profiles free of charge in the CMA Resource Library.

As always, let me know what your medical society can do for you, awetzel@ssvms.org. 

Aileen Wetzel, CEO
