Provider Relations

The MedStar Family Choice Provider Relations Department values our Provider Network, and our staff is available to assist network providers with education, inquiries, questions, problems, and concerns by phone (800-905-1722) or fax (855-600-3077).

MedStar Family Choice Provider Relations Representatives work very closely with our providers to keep you informed about MedStar Family Choice MCO and our provider network. We also provide orientations for all new providers and refresher orientations for current providers.

The Provider Relations Department will complete a site audit within 30 days of receipt of the Credentialing Department’s request for new providers at a new office location(s).

The Provider Relations Department will also complete a site audit when a request is received to add a new office location to an existing provider’s record prior to any patients being seen at the location and if we receive member complaints regarding an office location.

In addition, representatives also drop by our network provider offices to deliver updates and assist with any MedStar Family Choice concerns.
