How can members access care?
Members still have many options for in-network imaging services and have many high-quality imaging centers to choose from. Members can find options by calling BCBSAZ at the number on their ID card, or logging into their account at azblue.com/member.
What about appointments with Southwest Diagnostic Imaging?
Care managers are ready to assist with continuing care or ongoing imaging appointments.
If a provider schedules a member for an appointment after midnight on November 23, 2023, members should contact BCBSAZ so they can guide the referring provider to another high-quality imaging provider.
If members receive care after midnight November 23, 2023, it will be out-of-network. Depending on their plan, it may mean higher cost or may not be covered.
Members will receive a notification if they have received care from Southwest Diagnostic Imaging in the last 12 months.
