Notice of Transportation Reasonable Modification

"Lock-in" Provision

When you enroll with AltaMed PACE, we will be your sole service provider and you agree to receive medical services exclusively from our organization, except in the case of an emergency or for urgently needed services.  You will have access to all the care you need through our staff or through arrangements that AltaMed PACE makes with contract providers, but you will no longer be able to obtain services from other doctors or medical providers under the traditional fee-for-service Medicare and Medi-Cal system.  Enrollment in AltaMed PACE results in disenrollment from any other Medicare or Medi-Cal pre-payment plan or optional benefit. 
 

Electing enrollment in any other Medicare or Medi-cal prepayment plan or optional benefit, including the hospice benefit, after enrolling in AltaMed PACE is considered a voluntary disenrollment from AltaMed PACE. (Please note that any services you use before your enrollment will not be paid for by AltaMed PACE unless these are specifically authorized.)
