This is one of those questions that has an answer of maybe. You get to choose a Program Contractor (basically a third party company the state pays for) that provides an approved listing of physicians and specialist. If your doctor is already on this list then no problem but if your doctor isn't you may have to change doctors or use another form of payment like a medicare supplement or pay cash.
Make sure you pick your Program Contractor very carefully, when we originally chose Mercy Care our PCP wasn't covered but thankfully I had insurance through AARP which covered our main doctor who we had already established a relationship with. I tried to get Mercy Care to pick up the cost of the co-pay but I was told if the physician is non-contracted they would not provide anything.
