What are my out-of-pocket costs?
Members have a $10 co-pay for doctor visits, $20 for specialist visits, $50 for hospital emergency room visits in the network, $100 for hospital visits outside the network. If admitted, emergency room fees are waived, but ER visits are only covered if the condition is deemed life threatening. The plan encourages people to visit an urgent care facility in their network that charges a $15 co-pay.
Can I go anywhere in the health network as needed?
No. You select a primary care physician (PC). If you need to be treated by a specialist, then you obtain a referral from your health care provider.
How do I assure that my claims will be paid?
HealthChoice maintains a reserve fund to pay claims in a timely fashion if a HealthChoice client's validated claim is not paid in a timely manner. Please use our contact form to reach the organization if you have any questions or comments.

Is it necessary to pay the premiums on time?
