What is a network change notice?
A network change notice tells you about a change to the doctors, hospitals, or pharmacies that are in your plan’s network.
A provider or pharmacy you use, or one in your area, is joining or leaving the network, and your plan is required to let you know.
Nothing to return. It is telling you to check whether a provider you rely on is affected, since seeing an out-of-network provider can cost more.
If a provider you use is leaving the network, ignoring the notice could mean a later visit costs more, so it is worth checking whether it affects you. This is general information about how network notices work.
