Will I be able to pick my own doctors and hospitals?

Yes.

You can choose your primary care physician or your child's pediatrician from your health insurance plan's network of doctors. If you visit a doctor who is not in your network, you may have to pay more for your care. In some cases, you may have to pay the full cost. You can use our Provider Finder® tool to find in-network doctors, dentists, hospitals and other health providers.
