MEMPHIS Plan participants are assigned by our MEMPHIS Plan staff to a primary care physician and local hospital. Participants see their assigned primary care physician for regular office visits. The primary care physician may refer the patient to a specialist if needed. Physicians coordinate lab and diagnostic testing as well as hospitalization. Participants go to their assigned hospital for emergencies and surgical care when recommended by their MEMPHIS Plan physicians.
To enroll employees on the MEMPHIS Plan, employers must:
- Make sure employees meet the MEMPHIS Plan’s eligibility requirements.
- Agree to pay at least $10 of each employee’s monthly fee.
- Collect each employee’s portion of the monthly fee and remit the total amount to the MEMPHIS Plan.
Self-employed people also may be eligible to enroll in the MEMPHIS Plan.
