Timely Access Assistance

Check the approved Alternative Access Provider List to find out if your area is impacted by any time and distance challenges for certain provider types. If your zip code and provider type are listed, HPSM must help you find an appointment.

If the provider you are looking for is further than the required distance from your home, you can do any of the following:

  1. Choose any network provider from HPSM's directory and contact them directly to schedule an appointment
  2. Call HPSM for help in finding the nearest available network provider who meets your needs.  We can even make the appointment for you!
