Mahal naming Miyembro ng SFHP: Hindi naabot ng Kongreso ang isang kasunduan sa pagpopondo para sa Fiscal Year 2026, at ang pederal na pamahalaan ay isinara noong Oktubre 1. Bagama’t hindi natin alam kung gaano katagal ang pagsasara, magpapatuloy ang SFHP sa mga operasyon nito bilang normal. Maa-access mo pa rin ang pangangalaga na kailangan mo. Nagsusumikap kaming matiyak na hindi magambala ang iyong access sa pangangalaga. Kung makaranas ka ng anumang isyu, makipag-ugnayan sa Customer Service ng SFHP sa 1(415) 547-7800 o nang toll-free sa 1(800) 288-5555 (puwedeng i-dial ng user ng TTY ang 711). Bukas kami mula Lunes hanggang Biyernes, mula 8:00am hanggang 5:00pm.

The “SFHP network” are the group of participating (contracted with San Francisco Health Plan) providers and clinics. Additional services such as MRI, Dialysis, Durable Medical Equipment, Orthotics/Prosthetics, Home Care Supplies, and Family Planning are available to San Francisco Health Plan members through our network of contracted ancillary providers.
“Member’s medical group” is the group of doctors who work together and have a contract with SFHP to provide services to SFHP members. A medical group consists of physicians, specialists and other providers of health care services. Examples include the UCSF medical group (UCS), the SF Health Network (SFN), or the SF Community Clinic Consortium (CLN). Ancillary providers contracted with SFHP (“in SFHP network”) are also “in member’s medical group”.
