Disease Management & Preventive Care
Being an Ambetter member means getting the care you need, when you need it. But every situation is different. Are you sick? Injured? Do you need a checkup? Be prepared for any medical situation by taking a look at the care options available to you:
Your primary care provider is your main doctor — the one you see for regular checkups. If your condition isn’t life-threatening, calling your PCP should be your first choice. Use our online Find a Provider tool to find an in-network provider in your area.

Telehealth offers convenient, 24-hour access to in-network healthcare providers for non-emergency health issues. You can get medical advice, a diagnosis or a prescription by phone or video.

Go to the emergency room or call 911 if your condition is life-threatening. If you have a serious accident or illness, the ER may save your life.

Plus, visiting the ER may increase your out-of-pocket costs significantly.
CALL 911 or get to an ER if you experience:
In-Network means the doctor, pharmacy or facility is included in the Ambetter network. You should always try to use in-network services and providers.
Out-of-Network means the doctor, pharmacy or facility is not included in the Ambetter network — and isn’t covered by your health plan. You’ll likely pay more for those out-of-network services and providers.
Always have your member ID card with you when you receive medical care.
