Working with Doctors

When you select an HMO plan, you need to choose a primary care provider (PCP) to coordinate your care. Your PCP will refer you to other specialists in your HMO plan's network.

When you see out-of-network providers, you will pay the full cost of your care, except in cases of emergencies. To find a new provider online or check to see if your provider is part of your network, select from one of the options below:

Find a Doctor & Estimate Costs

Find care and save money with one simple tool. Our Find a Doctor & Estimate Costs tool makes it easy for you to find what you need. Search for doctors, dentists, and hospitals, and get cost estimates for over 1,600 procedures. Plus, the ability to read and write reviews, and compare up to ten doctors at a time puts more control in your hands.

  • Find doctors, hospitals, or other providers outside Massachusetts

Hospital Choice Cost Sharing

If your plan includes Hospital Choice Cost Sharing, what you pay for certain services depends on the hospital where you choose to get care. Our Hospital Choice Cost Sharing page can help you understand the your costs and care options.
