Insurance

Insurance is complicated, but at Pacific Ocean Pediatrics we aim to make this process as simple as possible. We recommend to always call your insurance company to confirm that we are in-network. Call your insurance to confirm coverage with our TAX ID# 95-4598042.

As of October 2018, we are contracted with the following employer provided (group) PPO insurances: Aetna, BlueCross*, BlueShield, Cigna, Health Net, and United Healthcare**.  The one insurance plan you can buy on your own (an individual plan) that we are contracted with is Blue Shield PPO.

*We are only contracted with certain BlueCross plans, Prudent Buyer and Advantage plans only. We are not contracted with Anthem Tiered or Pathway plans. Go to ANTHEM website to check eligibility using your ID #. 

**We are not contracted with United Health Care CORE plan.

Our office is NOT contracted with any HMO health plans. We do not accept MediCal. We do, however, accept Covered California from Blue Shield (but NOT any HMO from Blue Shield).

A credit card must be kept on file for your family, however your card on file will only be charged if your account is delinquent more than 30 days.

For all insurance or billing questions, please contact Lisa Kessenich at lisa@pacificoceanpediatrics.com or (310)-755-8848
