recently licensed or recently relocated health care practitioners joining a group practice, given certain
conditions.

2. Are you a physician who has recently relocated to New York from another state and
has not previously practiced in New York; or Yes No
3. Are you a physician who has changed his/her corporate relationship in a way that results

This application, including any certification and questionnaire we request that you complete, is not a
determination on your application. You will be notified of any such determination by separate correspondence.
Provisional Eligibility

made by EmblemHealth for network services you provide, which exceed any out-of-network benefits payable
under a member’s contract with EmblemHealth. You or your group practice shall not pursue reimbursement
from members, except to collect the copayment or coinsurance that otherwise would be payable had a
member received services from a health care professional in EmblemHealth’s network.
