That means every doctor and hospital is in network for me. Perhaps the Illinois coverage will be broad like mine is. I hope so.
Thanks for your post! It sounds like the Illinois plan that switched from UHC to Aetna will work the same way, at least that’s what we were told. Since the switch just occurred on January 1, 2023, is there any advice that would be helpful to know?
