Questions from insurers and network managers

Clinical, operational and commercial points to examine before a Malanje provider agreement.

01Why consider a local provider for our Malanje network?

Health cover is more useful when members can access care where they are. MERSOL-VA has premises in Malanje and lists consultations, tests, laboratory and nursing among its services.

Network inclusion should follow verification of actual availability, capacity and contractual terms. This page provides a starting point.

02Is MERSOL-VA already part of our provider network?

An agreement cannot be inferred from this website. Check its existence and scope directly with both the centre and the insurer.

Until an agreement is signed, do not present the centre as an approved provider or promise direct billing. We can discuss a new partnership.

03Which specialties and tests could be covered?

The public catalogue can inform a selection of services relevant to members in Malanje. Each service must be checked for clinician availability, capacity and applicable conditions.

The contract should list covered services and how additional requests are handled. A public catalogue is not a negotiated coverage schedule.

04How would eligibility and prior authorisation be checked?

Both parties can agree what identifies a member, how coverage is verified and which services need advance approval. Named contacts and a way to record decisions are useful.

The process should also cover denied or pending approvals. The centre cannot promise insurer payment before those checks are completed.

05Can we negotiate a procedure and rate schedule?

Yes. After identifying the insurer and desired services, the parties can review a private commercial proposal. Rates can specify service names, required documents and rules for future revisions.

The final version and effective date should be approved in writing. The public catalogue is not an automatic contract price list.

06What documents would support invoices?

The requirements depend on the agreed process and insurer policy. Member identifiers, authorisation references, dates, procedures and necessary supporting documents can be defined together.

Clinical confidentiality remains important. Health records should not be disclosed indiscriminately as part of routine administration.

07Are direct billing and deferred payment possible?

They can be discussed but require a prior written agreement. The scope, approvals, invoice frequency, dispute process and payment terms must be set out.

An enquiry alone does not guarantee members coverage or oblige the clinic to extend credit.

08How can we assess clinical leadership and premises?

The website introduces Dr Mercedes Pérez Gómez, a Gynaecology and Obstetrics specialist and educator who graduated in 1995 from the University of Medical Sciences of Havana, alongside actual photographs of the centre.

For credentialing, ask for relevant professional and institutional documents and review operations. Biography and photographs do not replace due diligence.

09Can we begin with limited services and expand later?

A defined initial scope can help test referral, authorisation and invoicing processes. It should reflect services the clinic confirms it can deliver.

Any later expansion or change should be formalised before it is promoted to members as covered care.

10What should we share to start a discussion?

Provide the insurer name, responsible contact, target population and region, priority services and preferred approval and payment process. No individual member data is needed for an initial commercial enquiry.

The team can then examine capacity, documents and terms. A provider agreement exists only when both parties have negotiated and signed it.

Discuss a partnership

Submitting a proposal does not establish coverage, network status or direct billing. A prior agreement is required.
