Horizon Value Access Plans
Our Horizon Value Access plans — Horizon Value Access Silver and Horizon Value Access Bronze — offer an affordable health care insurance solution to consumers who reside in Hunterdon, Morris, Sussex and Warren counties.
Enrolled members can receive care exclusively from a subset of providers in the Horizon Managed Care Network and Horizon Hospital Network who are located in one of the four New Jersey counties listed above.
Features of Our Horizon Value Access Plans:
- Primary Care Physician (PCP) selection is required.
- Referrals are required for certain services.
- Certain services/supplies require prior authorization.
- Horizon Value Access members must use physicians, ancillary providers and facilities, and other health care professionals, that participate specifically with the Horizon Value Access plans; all others are considered out of network. Horizon Value Access plans do not include out-of-network benefits, except in cases of medical emergencies.
Participation Status
Horizon Value Access plans use a subset of the providers who participate in the Horizon Managed Care Network, as well as a subset of the facilities in the Horizon Hospital Network.
Participating providers must have physical locations within Hunterdon, Morris, Sussex or Warren counties. Not all providers who participate in the Horizon Managed Care Network and who are located in this four-county area are participating in our Horizon Value Access plans.
