LONG BEACH, Calif., July 25 /PRNewswire/ -- SCAN Health Plan announced today that Bristol Park Medical Group has joined the health plan's provider network, effective immediately.

For the past three years, the medical group has won the prestigious Blue Ribbon award from the Pacific Business Group on Health, recognizing excellence in the California healthcare marketplace.

The physicians at Bristol Park share not only that belief but our commitment to putting the needs of the member first."

For no monthly premium, SCAN members in Orange County can avail themselves of all of the basic benefits covered under Medicare including doctor visits, hospital care, emergency/urgent care, ambulance service, home healthcare, skilled nursing facility care and chiropractic/podiatry care. Beyond these core Medicare benefits, SCAN members will enjoy generous prescription coverage (including brand and generic), coverage for routine eye and hearing exams (including eyewear and hearing aids), and transportation to the doctor's office, plus SCAN On-Call(TM), a 24-hour nurse advice line, in-home assistance services, and access to emergency care worldwide.
Founded in 1977, SCAN is one of the four largest Medicare Advantage Plans in all of California and consistently ranks as one of the state's fastest growing. The expansion into Ventura County is the first for the company since 1996.
