Find a Doctor - Find a Health Care Provider
If your insurance coverage is through
a HMO or features a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO), always check the
Provider Directory you received from your plan sponsor when looking for a
healthcare provider. Your insurance benefits are likely to be
different if you use a Provider who participates in your HMO or PPO versus a
Provider who does not. Below are several online resources for finding
general information about a variety of healthcare providers. For a
small fee healthcare quality reports are available from HeathGrades by following
