Univera requires you to Assign a Primary Care Physician (PCP): 

All LMHF members enrolled in a Point of Service plan must assign a Primary Care Physician (PCP). PCP information was not transferred from Highmark to Univera Healthcare. Once members receive the letter from Univera instructing them to assign a PCP, they are able to visit the Univera website at (univerahealthcare.com) and create an account using the Member I.D. number indicated below their name on the letter.  However, if completed on the Univera website, the assignment of their PCP must be done on or after January 1, 2025 – not before.  If they would like to assign their PCP prior to January 1, they can call the LMHF dedicated Customer Care line at 1-855-392-3558. If a member does not elect a PCP, they will be charged a “specialist” copay when visiting a physician. 

Being connected to a Primary Care Physician (PCP) is important for staying healthy and getting the care you need. We care about your health and want to make sure you get the most out of your Univera Healthcare plan.

There are several benefits to having a PCP:
• Consistent care from a doctor who knows you and your health history
• Easier access to routine and preventive care and important screening that can keep you healthy
• Note: Females 15 years or older can choose an OB/GYN in addition to a PCP
• Your medical claims are processed more efficiently

If you have not yet selected a PCP we can help!
• Visit www.univerahealthcare.com/member or go to the Univera Healthcare mobile app and select “Find a Doctor” on or after your policy start date
• Or, call Univera at the number on the back of your member card.
