Preferred Providers are the physicians, hospitals, and other health care providers who have contracted to provide specific medical care at negotiated prices. You should always confirm the Preferred Provider is part of the network, as this can change without notice by calling the Company at 1-888-251-6253 and/or by asking the provider.
The Preferred Provider for your plan is UnitedHealthcare Options PPO. If care is received from a Preferred Provider, any Covered Medical Expenses will be paid at the Preferred Provider level of benefits. Reduced or lower benefits will be provided when an Out-of-Network provider is used. By using a Preferred Provider you can also save yourself some out of pocket expenses.
