ACCESSING THE HUMANA PROVIDER DIRECTORY

Making the switch from Anthem to Humana should not result in the need to change healthcare providers for most Cincinnati State employees. More than 98% of the Anthem healthcare providers are also within the Human HMO Premier Medical Plan. The small percentage of those not within the Anthem system are typically mental health, chiropractic and other specialty healthcare providers. You can use Humana's web-based Physician Finder Plus service to:

? Look up a person, group, or facility by name, to confirm that a specific provider is in the Humana HMO Premium network using the "Find Doctor" feature.

? Get a provider's phone number, address, or directions. ? Find the most recently updated list of in-network providers ? quickly and easily. ? Search for a provider by specialty and other criteria, as well as by distance from

your home or work. Confirming Your Provider Is Within The HMO Premier Medical Plan 1. It's easy to use Physician Finder Plus. First, go to and

click on both the "Find a Doctor" tab on the main screen and on the insert box that will then open up in the center of the page.

2. In the "Search by Coverage & Network" box on the right, select "Employer Group Plan (Non Medicare)," enter your zip code in the space provided, and click "Go."

3. Select "HMO Premier" from the dropdown list of Humana Networks and click "Go."

4. Enter your location by either searching for providers near a certain ZIP code or, if you prefer, within a particular county. Don't forget to agree to the "Terms of Use" on this page, too.

5. Click on the type of provider you need. The options vary depending on whether you're looking for a doctor, hospital, urgent care center, or other healthcare provider. For instance, if you're searching for a doctor, you can choose primary care physician or specialist and then choose a particular specialty. Click on "Advanced Search" to pinpoint by gender, certifications, languages spoken, and more.
