What If the Pediatrician You Want to See Is Out-of-Network?
If you prefer a pediatrician who is out-of-network, you should be aware of the potential increased costs. Here are some considerations:
Higher Out-of-Pocket Costs: You may have to pay more out-of-pocket compared to seeing an in-network pediatrician. Limited Coverage: Insurance may cover only a portion of the costs or none at all. Pre-Authorization: Some insurance plans require pre-authorization for out-of-network services.
