Can I keep my doctor with Obamacare? Does this physician take Covered California?
Finding answers to those questions has been one of the biggest
complaints during the rollout of the Affordable Care Act. To help consumers,
The Times has created a statewide database of doctors participating in Covered
California individual coverage for 2015.
This data uses insurance company information submitted to regulators and obtained
under the Public Records Act as of August. It’s subject to change and details
should be verified with a health plan. This doesn’t pertain to insurers outside Covered California
or networks offered through employer coverage.
Blue Shield only sells its EPO in the following 26 counties: Alameda, San Benito,
Santa Cruz, Amador, Butte, Calaveras, Colusa, Del Norte, Glenn, Humboldt, Lake,
Lassen, Mendocino, Modoc, Nevada, Plumas, Shasta, Sierra, Siskiyou, Tehama, Trinity,
Tuolumne, Marin, Napa, Solano, Sonoma. Enrollees can see doctors listed in any county.
