10 Tips on Avoiding Major Health Insurance Traps

HOW TO AVOID THIS HEALTH INSURANCE TRAP

When you make an appointment with a new doctor or book a procedure, make sure the provider is in your network. Confirm the provider’s network status with your insurer if you need to. If you find out the provider is not in the network, ask your insurance company for one that is.

To make it simpler, select a doctor from your health insurance plan list. A quick call to member services to ask for in-network doctors can help you avoid surprises down the road.
