FAQ
The healthcare services Indian Health Service (IHS) Beneficiaries receive at KANA facilities are called Direct Care. Purchased and Referred Care (PRC) may cover the cost for approved healthcare services which are not available at our facilities, such as emergency room or referred medical and dental services. When policies and procedures are followed and requirements are met, PRC provides funding to support these services for eligible IHS Beneficiaries.
Indian Health Service is not an insurance. IHS requires PRC to be the payer of last resort, meaning all other options, including Medicare, Medicaid, V.A., Tribal, employer or private health insurance, must be used prior to IHS funds. Although IHS does not require patients to purchase insurance, we offer the assistance of our Patient Benefit Coordinator (PBC) to help you screen for possible eligibilities to the above programs. If you are eligible, KANA’s PBC can help you apply. Please call (907) 486-9870 for questions or assistance applying.
If you receive emergent medical services in Kodiak, outside of normal clinic hours, notify your KANA Case Manager within 72 hours (3 days, including weekends and holidays.) Your Case Manager will determine if follow-up care is needed and place notes in your chart reporting the ER visit. Anyone acting on behalf of a patient can notify KANA.
PRC coverage while outside of Alaska is limited to emergent medical care and is covered under ANMC PRC, not KANA.
If you receive emergent medical services while traveling outside the State of Alaska, you must call ANMC PRC within 72 hours of services received.
ANMC PRC offers informational wallet cards for your convenience. Cards are available at anmc.org/prc or by calling ANMC PRC at (800) 478-1636 or (907) 729-2470.
You are financially responsible for services received outside of the Tribal Health System that have not been referred by your provider or that are non-emergent services.
Examples of services that you may be financially responsible for include but are not limited to:
- Services obtained outside of KANA/ANMC without referral.
- OB deliveries at private hospitals.
- Inpatient or outpatient mental health/substance abuse program services.
- Second opinions outside of the Tribal Health System.
- Nursing home or long-term care facilities.
- Hospice/Palliative care.
- Emergency room visits for non-emergent services.
- Non-emergent procedures that can be performed at ANMC.
Your primary care provider will initiate a referral for the services that you require. Please note: Referral is a recommendation for treatment/test only. The PRC program must review the referral to make the determination for IHS approval of payment. All PRC eligibility requirements must also be met. Your referral will not be held or canceled if you do not meet PRC eligibility guidelines but you may be financially responsible for that referred service.
