No, this is not an insurance plan. Our Discount Plans provide you with discounted prices on a wide range of health care services and products; you will pay for services at the discounted price at the time services are received.

First, you can find participating providers by using the "Provider Search" page on this website or by calling (833) 244-8341. After confirming the provider's continued participation when making an appointment, members just show their member ID card at the time of service. Members are responsible for paying all fees directly to the provider.

While some ZIP code areas may have a limited number of providers, there are usually providers within a 50-mile radius of your ZIP code. You can refer a provider for participation in the network by visiting our provider nomination page. The program administrator will contact the provider with information on how to apply to participate in the program. Because of the application and credentialing process, it may take 6 – 12 weeks before a provider is added to the network. Not all providers will agree to accept the discounted fees required by the program.

You will only receive a discount by going to a participating provider. You might try printing out a list of participating providers to share with your doctor or dentist to see if they could recommend any of the participating specialist locations.
