    * This program is geographically specific. For example: If a patient buys the coverage in California, they are only covered in California, if they buy it in Washington state, they are only covered in Washington state (unless emergency). They may only select a Virginia Mason PCP if they have the coverage in Washington state. If needing specialty care and coming from another state, they must have an approved referral.
