THEY are, yes. HE is not, because he already has a full roster. This is the problem many people will find, when they try to get a PCP assigned to them at TVH. TVH isn't a PCP. It's a health GROUP, with PCPS employed by them. If you need to establish a patient file there, you need a PCP. But you can't get one, if you can't find one that is still accepting new patients at all.

'Not accepting new patients' has nothing to do with health insurance. It has to do with a doctor shortage.
