Can I change my primary care physician?

Yes, you can change your primary care physician, at maximum, once a month. This can be due to dissatisfaction with your current physician, finding one that better suits your needs or acquiring one closer to the location to which are staying. We want you to be happy with your physician, so we encourage you to find one that best works for you. It is however, important to check your policy details before doing so. Some plans, namely HMOs, have a limited network from which to choose primary physicians. By selecting a physician from within the network, you are most likely to maintain coverage for treatment. To change primary care physicians, you contact the physician you wish to be your primary care doctor, and then inform your insurance company about the change. Specifics can be found in your policy details.
