Medicare Guidance for Bellflower Residents

Outpatient care in-city, hospital care in neighboring communities. A medical office is not a hospital.

Kaiser Permanente Bellflower Medical Offices are outpatient geography. Inpatient care for Kaiser members generally follows Kaiser hospitals. Independent-network residents may use Lakewood Regional, PIH Downey, or Long Beach hospitals. Trace the plan from office to admitting hospital.

A hospital, doctor, medical group, or pharmacy being nearby does not mean it participates in a particular Medicare Advantage network. Original Medicare acceptance is not the same as being in a given plan’s network. Confirm the exact location, physician, medical group, and plan with the office and on Medicare.gov.

Office versus hospital
