Protection Plan

With this health plan, you can use any doctor, clinic, hospital or health care facility in the choice network, which saves you money.

If you don’t use a provider from our network, you’ll have to pay for all of the costs. Referrals are not required to see a specialist.

Preventive care is covered 100 percent in the network. You don't have to pay any out-of-pocket costs for age appropriate preventive care as long as you use a network doctor.

The importance of a primary care provider (PCP)

Primary care provider

This plan does not require you to have a primary care provider (PCP), but choosing one for yourself and each covered family member is highly recommended. Your PCP is your health guide - coordinating your care, helping you avoid cost surprises and supporting you in achieving your best health.

It's easy to find and choose a network Primary Care Provider
Click the provider network link above, or choose "Search for a Provider" in the main menu, and open the network provider directory website for your selected plan.

Then follow these steps:

Under “What type of Medical Care can we help you find near”, click Change Location, fill in your location information, and click Update Location.
Under “Find Health Care by Category”, select People > Primary Care > All Primary Care Providers to see a listing of PCPs.
Scroll through the listing and select the name of the network PCP you'd like to coordinate your care.
Click on the PCP’s name for the Provider ID number.

Important: For health plans requiring a PCP, a PCP will be selected for you and your covered family members if you don’t pick one by the enrollment deadline. You can change your PCP anytime at myuhc.com.

The UnitedHealth Premium® designation program is a resource for informational purposes only. Designations are displayed in UnitedHealthcare online physician directories at myuhc.com®. You should always visit myuhc.com for the most current information. Premium designations are a guide to choosing a physician and may be used as one of many factors you consider when choosing a physician. If you already have a physician, you may also wish to confer with him or her for advice on selecting other physicians. You should also discuss designations with a physician before choosing him or her. Physician evaluations have a risk of error and should not be the sole basis for selecting a physician. Please visit myuhc.com for detailed program information and methodologies.
