Westwood OB/GYN drops privileges at Riverside


You or one of your dependents may be financially impacted by Westwood
OB/GYN’s decision to abruptly drop privileges at Riverside. Due to this sudden change, Westwood OB/GYN will no longer be in Tier 1 on our employee health plan as of February 1, 2021. If you continue to see their providers, you will incur higher out-of-pocket expenses.

As a reminder, Presence and Amita facilities (including St. Mary’s Hospital) are excluded providers on our benefit plans, which means there is no coverage if you use any of their facilities or services. We encourage you to utilize Riverside Medical Center to get the highest coverage through our benefit plans.

To receive the enhanced Tier 1 level of benefits, we recommend you transition to a Tier 1 provider, such as Riverside Medical Group Women’s Health Specialists. Appointments can be scheduled by calling (815) 935-4651 or online at riversidehealthcare.org.

If you have any questions, please contact Riverside’s benefit support line at
extension 37255.
