If you had to pick the most important feature of a health insurance carrier, it would probably be high-quality care or an affordable price, right? But convenience is an important factor, too—you want to be able to see doctors that are nearby. Availability is also key—you may not always know when you’re going to need a doctor, but when you do, it’s important they’re available for an appointment. So which one do you pick?
Fortunately, with Oscar, it’s possible to have all of these qualities in one insurance carrier. That’s because our provider network is built to ensure the best possible member experience. Oscar identifies the leading providers within a service area by measuring quality, cost, and network completeness—providers who cover every specialty. Bringing this rigourous set of standards to Columbus, we’ve partnered with the award-winning health care provider, Mount Carmel Health System. Mount Carmel’s hospitals and clinics serve over a million patients in Central Ohio each year, and we’re honored to be exclusively offering individual health plans through Mount Carmel’s provider network.
Oscar makes finding a doctor easy
Whether you need something routine like an annual physical, or you need to see a highly specialized doctor, Oscar has got you covered. Since you can see in-network specialists without a referral, when you find a specialist you like, you can go ahead and make an appointment instead of having to ask a primary care provider first. This makes booking appointments with dermatologists, allergists, physical therapists, etc, much faster and easier.
We’ve also set up our website and app to give you helpful information you can actually use: which doctor is nearby, in your price range, has a good member rating, and when they are available. It’s easy to search for doctors and specialists right in the Oscar app or on hioscar.com.
