The importance of a primary care provider

Whether or not you elect a medical plan that requires a primary care provider (PCP), one of the most important decisions you’ll make for your health is choosing a PCP. A PCP is the doctor who knows you best.

Your PCP is typically your first point of contact when you have medical questions or issues. They can help you navigate these decisions and get you the care you need. A PCP may also help you save time and avoid surprises.

As your primary contact, they’ll know your health history and health goals. In addition, they provide routine care – such as annual checkups – which may help identify potential health issues earlier. They can refer you to a specialist, if needed. So even when a health plan doesn’t require you to select a PCP, it’s still a good idea to have one.

It's easy to choose a 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.

Behavioral health care providers

Behavioral health is about more than just mental health. It includes issues from addiction to anger management, coping with grief to dealing with stress and other challenges. It’s an important part of your overall well-being — because how you feel matters. And caring support from behavioral health providers is a part of your plan.
