Medical providers

You may obtain health care from any provider you wish. However, how much you pay for care will depend on the provider's benefit level.

UIChoice has three provider levels. You do not need to pick a plan level. The level of the provider you choose for care automatically determines how much you pay—the lower the level, the lower the cost. 

Virtual health care is free to UIChoice members from any location via Doctor on Demand.

Pharmacy

The UIChoice plan has a 4-tiered prescription drug benefit. The lower the tier of your drug, the lower the cost to you.
