Health Care BY Americans, FOR Americans
Dear Physicians and other Healthcare Providers,
As you are aware, medical offices must contend with many different types of health plans in terms of referrals,
authorizations and uncertain reimbursements. Each patient potentially represents a different set of requirements.
When a Liberty HealthShare member becomes your patient there are no referrals needed and very limited
notifications, freeing the healthcare provider and staff of the cumbersome daily tasks which many offices
experience when dealing with the rules of insurance companies.
Liberty HealthShare is a health cost sharing program that provides our members with an affordable healthcare
option without utilizing a network and with the flexibility to see the provider of their choice. Healthcare sharing is
an acceptable choice in the Affordable Care Act, and fulfills the individual mandate.
All medical bills are re-priced by Global Care Inc. within 3 – 7 business days, giving us the ability for payment to be
made within 30 days. Members are responsible for their Annual Unshared Amount of $500 for a single
membership, $1000 for a couple, and $1500 for a family. All medical providers are reimbursed per the terms of the
health share guidelines up to the maximum payable amount. Reimbursement is based on the following:
•
For all Physician-related office visits, payment shall be reimbursed at Medicare rate +50% for
prevailing area where service is rendered. Claims must be submitted to Global Care, Inc., on a HCFA
1500 form, or electronically, inclusive of the rendering address with street, city, state and zip code
only, no P.O. boxes.
•
For all Inpatient-related services, payment shall be reimbursed at Medicare rate +60% for
prevailing areas where service is rendered. Claims must be submitted to Global Care, Inc., on HCFA
1500 or UB04 form, or electronically, inclusive of the rendering address with street, city, state and
zip code only, no P.O. boxes.
•
For all Outpatient- related services, payment shall be reimbursed at Medicare rate +70% for
prevailing areas where service is rendered. Claims must be submitted to Global Care, Inc., on a
HCFA 1500 or UB04 form, or electronically, inclusive of the rendering address with street, city, state
and zip code only, no P.O. boxes.
Bills must be sent directly to the address shown on the member’s identification card.
This program provides you, the provider of medical services, with timely, accurate and reasonable reimbursement
for services rendered within your service area. The Medical Cost Sharing Summary has been attached for your
review.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you have. I will be happy to discuss this with you, at
your convenience.
Thank you,
Liberty HealthShare
