Your Guide to Selecting a Primary Care Provider (PCP) and Other Providers Quality healthcare begins with a partnership between you and your primary care provider (PCP). When you need care, call your PCP, who will help coordinate your care. Your healthcare coverage under this plan is provided or arranged through our network of PCPs, specialists, and other providers. You’re encouraged to: • become involved in your healthcare by asking providers about all treatment plans available and their costs; • take advantage of the preventive health services offered under this plan to help you stay healthy and find problems before they become serious. Each member is required to provide the name of his or her PCP. However, if the name of a PCP is not provided with the application, your enrollment will not be delayed and your coverage will not be cancelled. How to Find a PCP or Other Providers Finding a PCP in our network is easy. To select a provider, or to check that a provider is in our network, please use the “Find a Doctor” tool on our website or call Customer Service. Please note: We are not obligated to provide you with a provider. We are not liable for anything your provider does or does not do. We are not a healthcare provider and do not practice medicine, dentistry, furnish health care, or make medical judgments.
