IMPORTANT NOTICE: The selection of a provider is not a guarantee of payment and the services rendered must be covered under the terms of your health benefits plan or EAP. In order to assure maximum benefits, you must check your benefit information to see if pre-authorization is required. Failure to do so may result in non-payment for services or reduction in the benefits available to you. APS maintains a regularly updated list of providers. However, there are rare occasions when an inquiry as to provider status may not include the most updated information. Please confirm provider status at the time of the request for authorization. Access to the provider database does not constitute verification of eligibility.
