Tips to help you choose a health plan and primary care provider (PCP)
Choose the best health plan for you.
- Go to Compare plans and choose your county to see the health plans available to you and the extra benefits offered by each plan.
- Review the report card to see how consumers rate the plans.
To help you choose, think about your answers to these questions before you enroll:
- Do you want to keep your current doctor or clinic, or do you want a new doctor or clinic?
- What health plans does your doctor accept?
- Do you have specialists you want to keep seeing? What health plans do your specialists take?
- Do you have a hospital you prefer? What health plans does that hospital accept?
- What extra services do you want from your health plan?
Before you enroll, contact your doctors, specialists and hospital to find out what health plans they will accept.
When you enroll, you will have to choose a health plan and a primary care provider (PCP).
If you want to keep the PCP/doctor you have now, search to see which health plans he or she accepts. To search for a doctor, enter the last name only. To search for a clinic, enter one or two words of the location name. We recommend that you contact the doctor’s office to ask which plans they accept in case the information in our provider search directory has changed recently.
If you want to choose a new doctor to be your PCP, you can ask people you trust for names of doctors they like and search by name. Or
- You can search by location using the zip code, city or county you prefer
- You can search by provider type and/or provider specialty
- If you prefer a male doctor over a female doctor or vice versa, you can search by gender
- If you want a doctor that speaks a certain language, you can search by language.
- You can also enter a hospital name, a group practice name or the health plan that you want.
- You can use all of the above options to perform your search
