A process for providing healthcare consumers advance notice of changes in network status of their healthcare service providers and/or medications whereby data indicating one or more healthcare service providers and/or medications used by a given healthcare consumer is obtained along with data indicating the given healthcare consumer's healthcare insurance plan. Data indicating all “in-network” healthcare service providers and/or medications for the given healthcare consumer's healthcare insurance plan is then obtained. The data indicating one or more healthcare service providers and/or medications used by a given healthcare consumer is then compared with the data indicating all in-network healthcare service providers and/or medications for the given healthcare consumer's healthcare insurance plan. As a result of the comparison, if any of the one or more healthcare service providers and/or medications used by a given healthcare consumer is identified as no longer being an in-network healthcare service provider and/or medication, the given healthcare consumer is informed of the change of one or more of the one or more healthcare service providers and/or medications used by the given healthcare consumer to “out-of-network” status.
