Chronic condition care
We offer extra care for those who have serious, ongoing medical problems. We work together to offer support, advice and therapies that help keep you as healthy as possible.
Specialists have extra training in caring for certain parts of the body or medical problems. For example, we have specialists who focus on the heart, diabetes, cancer, allergies and more. Check with your doctor’s office to find specialists near you.
If you need surgery, our specialists and surgeons will see you at one of the nearby hospitals we partner with. Ask your doctor for information on how to prepare for your surgery or procedure.
Referrals
Your primary care doctor might need to connect you to a specialist. This is called a referral. You can often get a referral before you even leave your primary care doctor's office.
When you need a referral depends on the situation:
- You can see some specialists without a referral. For example, you don’t need a referral to see an ob/gyn for a well-woman visit.
- Your primary care doctor can advise you about when you need a referral to see specialists.
- You can also contact your insurance company, which may have rules about when you need a referral.
- Sometimes your insurance company may not pay for visits with specialists unless you have a referral.
