Selecting a Pediatrician

Please Note: This information only applies to Care Choices HMO Members.

Members who are age 16 or younger may choose a Care Choices HMO family practitioner or a participating pediatrician as their primary care physician (PCP). Children who do not have a pediatrician as their PCP may see a Care Choices HMO pediatrician for general pediatric care without first seeing their PCP for a referral.

Remember, if you want your newborn to be covered through Care Choices HMO, you have only 30 days from the date of your baby's birth to add him or her to your Care Choices HMO policy. Contact Customer Service to add your baby or to discuss coverage issues.

For more information on pediatric services, please call our Customer Service Department or talk to your PCP.
