When you or a family member needs medical attention, understanding your health benefits can help make the experience less stressful. Z-2-H™ Family Med & Urgent Care Clinic provides compassionate primary care, family medicine, and urgent care at eligible Texas clinic locations.

Hill Country Transit District employees enrolled in the SMARTCARE 500814 Rx 30-25 Plan may be eligible to receive care through participating Employers Health Network providers. Benefits, network participation, and patient costs should be verified before scheduling an appointment.

What Does the Hill Country Transit Plan Include?

Hill Country Transit District offers the SMARTCARE 500814 Rx 30-25 Plan.

According to the available plan information, members have:

  • A $30 copay for primary care visits

  • A $75 copay for specialist visits

These amounts may not apply to every service received during an appointment. Laboratory testing, imaging, medications, procedures, medical supplies, and additional services may be processed separately.

Your final cost may depend on current eligibility, provider-network participation, medical necessity, prior authorization, the clinic location, and the care provided. An insurance card does not guarantee coverage or payment.

For scheduling assistance, call Z-2-H at (469) 283-0076.

Can Hill Country Transit Employees Visit Z-2-H?

How Do I Verify My Benefits?

Before scheduling an appointment, contact Elan Member Services at (833) 845-8854 or CAS at (800) 870-1831 and ask:

  • Does Z-2-H participate with my Hill Country Transit District plan?

  • Is the requested medical service covered?

  • What copay, deductible, or coinsurance applies?

  • Are laboratory tests, imaging, medications, procedures, or supplies billed separately?

  • Is prior authorization required?

  • Will I have a time-of-service responsibility?

  • Are there clinic-location or network restrictions?

Write down the representative’s name, the date of the call, and the reference number provided.

Final coverage is determined when the administrator processes the claim. Z-2-H can collect your insurance information before the appointment, but Elan Member Services or CAS provides the official explanation of plan benefits.

Is Prior Authorization Required?

Prior authorization depends on the medical service being requested.

Members and providers should contact Elan Member Services at (833) 845-8854 or CAS at (800) 870-1831 before receiving a service that may require approval.

Prior authorization may be required for certain:

  • Diagnostic tests

  • Imaging services

  • Procedures

  • Medications

  • Medical supplies

  • Specialist services

  • Follow-up treatments

Prior authorization does not guarantee claim payment. Current eligibility, medical necessity, provider-network participation, plan exclusions, and other requirements may affect how a claim is processed.

What Network Does the Plan Use?

The Hill Country Transit District SMARTCARE plan uses the EHN Preferred Network.

This network includes Baylor Scott & White Quality Alliance providers who have elected to participate. Not every Baylor Scott & White Quality Alliance provider participates in the EHN Preferred Network.

Members should confirm that their preferred Z-2-H clinic participates with their exact Hill Country Transit District plan before receiving care.

To locate or verify an in-network provider:

Provide the employer name, medical plan name, member identification number, preferred clinic location, and requested medical service when confirming participation.

Are Specialist Referrals Required?

The available Hill Country Transit District plan information does not list a specialist-referral requirement.

Certain specialist visits, diagnostic tests, procedures, or treatments may still require prior authorization. Contact Elan Member Services or CAS before beginning specialist care to confirm the current requirements for your plan.

Members should also verify that the specialist, facility, and requested service participate with the EHN Preferred Network.

What Should I Bring to My Appointment?

Please bring or prepare:

  • Your Hill Country Transit District insurance card

  • A photo identification card

  • A current medication list

  • Known medication or food allergies

  • Relevant medical records

  • Recent laboratory or imaging results

  • Any referral or authorization documents

  • A description of your symptoms

Providing complete and accurate information can help prevent delays with eligibility verification and claim processing.
