You have direct access to your own primary care provider through your Health Access Benefit. Your provider can help you manage ongoing health conditions, prescribe medication, send orders for labs and imaging, and much more. Go to your primary care provider for your routine medical needs.

Having a primary care provider is the key to your total health solution. Not only will your primary care provider keep you and your family healthier, but they will save you money on health care costs over time.

Primary Care Keeps You Healthy

People who maintain a relationship with their primary care provider are healthier overall. Your primary care provider will help you avoid preventable illnesses and health complications, which can lead to these better health outcomes for you and your family.

Data shows that those who utilize primary care are better off in many ways, such as:

• Living longer and are less likely to die prematurely

• Spending less time in hospitals

• Visiting the emergency room less often

• Using ambulance services less often

• Requiring fewer surgeries

Primary Care Saves You Money

Primary care providers help patients avoid the really expensive health care costs of hospital stays, ambulance services, and emergency room visits. That means those with a primary care provider save more money on their health care than those without primary care. One study showed savings could be as much as 33% per year!

As a Health Access Benefit member, you can begin seeing your primary care provider immediately and enjoy better health and lower costs.
