When it comes to medical advice, everyone wishes they had a professional to guide them. Traditional insurance companies don’t often encourage or approve of getting second opinions. Plus, waiting for insurance authorization further delays patient care. But our Health Access members don’t need to get permission from anyone because they have built-in access to a medical advisor for any medical question!
If you get your primary care through your Health Access Benefit, then you have unlimited access to your primary care provider. That means you can contact them at any time for free medical advice, even if you have already been to another doctor or specialist!
How to Contact Your Primary Care Provider
It’s easy to reach your primary care provider. Look up their information in your Digital Membership Packet or through our 24/7 Help Desk.
Having a relationship with your primary care provider is the key to your total health solution. Contact them with your recent medical news and ask for their expert opinion. Not only will your primary care provider keep you and your family healthier, but they can help you save more money on health care costs. Offering you medical advice and guidance is just one of the ways they do that!
When to Ask Your Primary Care Provider For Advice
Here are three real-life examples of how actual Health Access members asked their primary care provider for free medical advice:
- When their son’s pediatrician ordered nearly $900 worth of lab work, this family knew they needed a better solution. They contacted their primary care provider for their opinion, who agreed that the lab word was necessary. However, their primary care provider recommended Ulta Lab Tests and saved them nearly $600!
- This Health Access member was spending $450 per month on insulin. By contacting her primary care provider and discussing affordable alternatives, she now pays $38 per month. That’s more than $5,000 of savings per year!
- By consulting with their primary care provider, this family saved $240 per physical therapy visit and was referred to a place that offered affordable x-ray scans. Thanks to unlimited access to their primary care provider, they said that “this was the best health care experience our family has ever had!”
