AmeriHealth New Jersey Introduces a New Value Network (NJ Only)AmeriHealth New Jersey is introducing a new network called the AmeriHealth New Jersey Value Network. This network will meet access and quality standards for our members while also lowering costs. We have designed this network to be comprised of only New Jersey-based physicians, hospitals, and ancillary providers who will serve our New Jersey-based employer groups. AmeriHealth New Jersey products offering this new network will be available beginning April 1, 2011. Providing cost-effective health coverage is one of our main priorities. In these challenging times, AmeriHealth New Jersey is working hard to offer more affordable coverage for individuals who may have trouble affording health care. The introduction of the AmeriHealth New Jersey Value Network is our latest effort to provide cost-effective health coverage. Notification was sent to providers that did not meet the criteria for participation in the AmeriHealth New Jersey Value Network. If you received this notice and are interested in participating in the AmeriHealth New Jersey Value Network, please contact your Network Coordinator or Hospital/Ancillary Services Coordinator. If you received notification that your current agreement meets the criteria for participation in the AmeriHealth New Jersey Value Network, you do not need to do anything to join the new network. You will automatically be considered a participating provider in the AmeriHealth New Jersey Value Network and your contracted reimbursement rates will remain the same.
