With this plan, you can use any doctor, clinic, hospital or health care facility you want in our national network.
There’s coverage if you need to go out of the network. However, seeing an out- of-network provider will likely cost you more. If you need to see a specialist, a referral is not required.
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.

Are your providers in network?
Network coverage
Network coverage plays a big part in delivering you cost savings and quality care. With the network, you'll have access to a group of health care providers and facilities that have a contract with UnitedHealthcare. Finding providers in the network is easy when you use Provider Search

Look for the hearts
To help you find quality and cost-efficient doctors, the UnitedHealth Premium® program fully evaluates doctors in various specialties.
Primary care provider
While this plan does not require you to have a primary care provider (PCP), choosing one for yourself and each 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 PCP – just go to Provider Search to get started.
Choosing your Primary Care Provider
Click on the Provider Search link above to find the network 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 14-digit Provider ID number — write it down so that you can provide that information when you enroll.
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.
Copays and cost sharing
Most health plans share the same idea: there’s how much you pay for the cost of care, when you pay for it, and what percentage of those costs you and your plan share. It can all be a little confusing, especially when you add in words like “deductible” and “copay”.
To make it easier, here’s an example of how health plans work.
At the start of your health plan year...
You're responsible for paying 100% of the costs for covered health care, up until you reach your deductible. The deductible is the amount you pay before the plan starts sharing costs. Age appropriate preventive care is covered 100% as long as you use a network provider.
About COPAYS...
Some health plans have a copay, which is a fixed amount you pay each time you see a provider or purchase a prescription. Because copays don't count toward your deductible, you're responsible for paying 100% of your copay up until you reach your out-of-pocket limit.
When you reach your DEDUCTIBLE
Coinsurance kicks in and your health plan starts sharing a percentage of these costs with you, up until you reach your out-of-pocket limit.
When you reach your OUT‑OF‑POCKET LIMIT
The most you'll have to pay for the costs of health care in a plan year is your out-of-pocket limit. Once this limit is reached, your health plan covers you at 100% for the rest of the plan year.
Health Reimbursement Account
This plan comes with a health reimbursement account (HRA) — an account funded by your employer to help you pay for medical expenses.
How your HRA works
Using the money in your HRA is easy.
- Your HRA automatically pays for eligible medical expenses first, including deductibles. As long as money is available in your HRA, you won’t pay any health care expenses.
- If all the money in your HRA is spent, you will need to pay for your covered services until your plan’s out-of-pocket limit is met.
- To help you see how and to whom claims have been paid, you’ll have access to a monthly Health Statement. You’ll also find balances and claim activities on myuhc.com.
