Introduction<br />
This listing provides primary care physicians in HIP’s Select Network. To get<br />
detailed information about your health care coverage, please see your Evidence<br />
of Coverage.<br />
You will have to choose one of our plan providers that are provided in this listing<br />
to be your Primary Care {Physician/Provider} (PCP). The term “PCP” will be used<br />
throughout this listing. Generally, you must get your health care coverage from<br />
your PCP. Your PCP is your primary care physician, who can provide and coordinate<br />
all of your care, including specialist visits, hospital admissions and more.<br />
The “plan providers” in this network have agreed to provide you with your health<br />
care coverage. If you have been going to one plan provider, you are not required<br />
to continue going to that same provider. In some cases, you may get covered<br />
services from non-plan providers. Please check your Evidence of Coverage for<br />
more details on specific referral requirements and more details about your plan<br />
benefits.<br />
