The UnitedHealth Premium Program evaluates physicians using national standardized measures for quality and local benchmarks for cost-efficiency. You’ll have greater peace of mind knowing your doctor is more likely to deliver a consistently higher quality of care at the best value.

 

Plus, your plan provides a higher level of coverage when you visit Tier 1 providers vs. non-Tier 1 providers, which means you’ll pay less out of pocket.

 

Providers with the Tier 1 status include a wide range of specialties. Depending on your plan, this may include family practice, internal medicine, pediatrics, cardiology, orthopedics and more, so you are more likely to find a provider that fits your health care needs. 

 

These doctors may also be more likely to give you the care you need the first time, which may result in: Fewer complications. Fewer do-over surgeries. Fewer unnecessary lab tests, MRIs and medications.

 

It’s easy to find a Tier 1 provider – just look for the blue dot next to the doctor’s name on myuhc.com®. You can also call the number on the back of your health plan ID card.

 

Don’t pay more than you have to for the quality care you and your family deserve.

Choose wisely – choose Tier 1.

 

Just look for the blue dot.
