How to Find a Network Provider

Carrier websites offer a wealth of information to their members. We strongly recommend that you register online with each of your carriers so that you can access your personal information, claim status, procedure history, and other tools. Vita is available to help if you need assistance beyond these online tools. You may be asked to complete and sign a release form that authorizes Vita to act on your behalf.

You should also contact your physician directly to confirm participation in your network prior to seeking care. Seeing a provider name on a carrier’s website does not guarantee that they are part of the network, as provider participation is subject to change at any time.

Please review to your Summary of Benefits for your Plan Name and Carrier Network Information.
