How to Find a Medical Health Care ProviderChoose a UnitedHealthcare medical provider to help maximize health care dollars and lower out-of-pocket costs. Use the UHCSR Mobile App or go to www.uhcsr.com/SACM. Click the links under “Search for a Provider”. Or call Customer Service at 866-808-8461.
1. Access your SACM Welcome page at www.uhcsr.com/SACM
2. In the Search for a Provider section click the Medical - UHC Choice Plus link
3. Click Change Location and specify a ZIP code or city/state to narrow down the location. Click OK.
4. In the Search box, specify Doctor Name or Specialty, Facility Name, Clinic Name, or Medical Group Name. Click SEARCH.• You may also click the Find Health Care by Category buttons below the Search box to search by
People, Places, Tests and Imaging, Services and Treatments or Care by Condition.
5. Follow the prompts to further refi ne your search criteria.• The search results will indicate the providers’ address, phone number and other details.
Which provider should I see?Sometimes it may be diffi cult to decide if a sudden illness or injury needs immediate emergency care. Choosing the right health setting - Primary Care Physician, Urgent Care, or Emergency Room is important; knowing which provider to see, depending on the medical situation, can save you time and money.
Primary Care Physician When you or a loved one is hurt, you want the best care. Your primary care physician knows you and your health history. He or she can access your medical records. And, he or she can provide you follow-up care or refer you to specialists. If it’s not urgent, it’s usually best to go to your own physician’s offi ce.
Urgent Care Sometimes you may need care fast. But, your Primary Care Physician may be unavailable. You may want to try an urgent care center. They can treat many minor ailments. Chances are, you won’t have to wait as long as at an emergency room. You may pay less, too.
An urgent care center can help with: • Sprains & Strains • Minor broken bones (example: fi nger) • Minor infections • Small cuts • Sore throats • Rashes
Emergency Rooms You may be tempted to go to an emergency room (ER). But, this may not be the best choice. At the ER, true emergencies are treated fi rst. Other cases must wait--sometimes for hours. And, it may cost you more.
Go to an ER for: • Heavy bleeding • Large open wounds • Sudden change in vision • Chest pain • Sudden weakness or trouble talking • Major burns • Severe head and spinal injuries • Diffi culty breathing • Major broken bones
