I always call United Healthcare before each trip up north to be certain that the policies that were in place on the previous trip have not changed. I suggest you do the same and never assume that things stayed the same as the last trip you took.

I am covered on the trip and when we get to Jersey. We just change the zip code in the Doctor Finder and then call to confirm that the Doctor we select is still active with United Healthcare because they may show that they are in Network and actually it may not be the case. Sometimes the Doctor may drop off the Network and the info on the computer is not updated quickly. Finding out anything from UHC is a pleasure, not a hassle but dot the I's & cross the T's. I tape the calls and get names and save all information.

Its a Good feeling to have such Great Insurance.
