How do I change my Primary Care Physician?

You may call your Medical Plan's toll-free telephone number and request the change. (You can find the number on your plan's ID card.) Most plans will allow you to change your Primary Care Physician (PCP) once per month and change medical groups at least once per year; contact your medical plan for more information and to make the change.

When requesting a PCP change, be sure to confirm with the carrier when the change will become effective. Most plans will allow the change effective the first of the next month if the request is made by the 15th of the current month.

If you would like to see a listing of doctors for your plan, you may search for doctors (and their corresponding ID numbers) online; see your medical plan's website.
