Martin's Point plan members or their authorized representatives have the right to express complaints, frustrations, and disagreement about their experience interacting with health care providers, the plan and/or its administrators.
Under state and federal law, members can express those complaints through the Martin's Point grievance and appeals process.
Providers may also file a grievance or appeal on behalf of a current or former member by obtaining authorization from the member.
A grievance is a member complaint about the way the health plan or drug plan is giving care.
For example, a member may file a grievance if they have a problem calling the plan or if they’re unhappy with the way a staff person at the plan behaved towards them.
However, if they have a complaint about a plan’s refusal to cover a service, supply, or prescriptions, they file an appeal.
Members or their authorized representatives may submit a grievance by phone or mail:
