Provider offices are encouraged to review their demographic information published in the provider directory on a quarterly basis.
Our Find a Doctor tool allows Independence members to conduct efficient online searches for network doctors, specialists, hospitals, and other health care professionals. Having the most up-to-date information available is key to making this an effective tool. This information serves an important purpose to members who are choosing a health care provider.
Your provider profile displays the following types of information:
- provider's gender
- specialty
- languages spoken
- hospital affiliations
- whether he or she is accepting new patients
- board certification status
- availability of weekend hours
This information allows existing or potential members to search for a medical professional with the ability to compare up to three provider profiles side by side so they can make an informed decision for their health care needs.
