call FirstSight at
The California Department of
Managed Health Care is responsible for regulating health care service plans. If
you have a grievance against your health plan, you should first telephone your
health plan at 1-800-841-2790 and use your health plan's grievance process
before contacting the department. Utilizing this grievance procedure does not
prohibit any potential legal rights or remedies that may be available to you. If
you need help with a grievance involving an emergency, a grievance that has not
been satisfactorily resolved by your health plan, or a grievance that has
remained unresolved for more than 30 days, you may call the department for
assistance. You may also be eligible for an Independent Medical Review (IMR). If
you are eligible for IMR, the IMR process will provide an impartial review of
medical decisions made by a health plan related to the medical necessity of a
proposed service or treatment, coverage decisions for treatment that are
experimental or investigational in nature and payment disputes for emergency or
urgent medical services. The department also has a toll-free telephone number
(1-888-HMO-2219) and a TDD line
(1-877-688-9891) for the hearing and speech
impaired. The department's Internet Web site http://www.hmohelp.ca.gov has
complaint forms, IMR applications forms and instructions online.
