Can I go to my own doctor for treatment?
Yes. By law, you initially have the freedom of choice to obtain health care from any qualified health care provider.
This provider may refer you to a specialist without prior approval from your employer’s medical provider. Your first visit to an emergency facility is not considered your first choice. However, if you see a provider more than once and then decide to change doctors, you must select a provider from the Beacon Mutual Preferred Provider Network (PPN).
