Network Information
The Case Western Reserve University Student Medical Plan, subject to the outlined benefits, limits and exclusions, protects the student
during the term for which the fee has been paid. The Plan reserves the right to coordinate benefits with any
other medical coverage.
Participants of the Case Western Reserve University Student Medical Plan are encouraged to access providers in the Emerald Health
Network for services received in Ohio and the Beech Street Network for services received out-of-state. Both
Emerald Health and Beech Street include hospitals, physicians and ancillary providers. Participants may
realize substantial savings by utilizing providers that are in the Emerald Health PPO Network and/or the
Beech Street PPO Network.
For Network Information and provider directories:
Emerald Health – 800-346-3141
Beech Street – 800-877-1666
Failure to utilize a network provider, either an Emerald Health PPO provider for services received in
Ohio or a Beech Street PPO provider for services outside-of-Ohio, will result in a benefit reduction to
60% of covered charges.
In the case of a medical emergency as determined by the claims administrator, a participant who obtains
health care from an out-of-network provider will be subject to the in-network limits and restrictions with
respect to such care. When hospital or medical care is required because of a Sickness or Injury eligible for
benefits under this Plan, the reasonable and customary expense actually incurred will be paid, up to the
specified limits for each Sickness or Injury.
