Can I use only the physicians and hospitals that participate in the Encore Health Network?

ENCORECONNECT :::
No. However, please keep in mind that you receive better coverage if you use an Encore provider. If the physician or hospital is not in the Encore network, your benefits will be lower, meaning you will have to pay a larger portion of the cost of the medical services you receive. Your health plan or insurance company can assist you with this process and should be consulted for benefits and eligibility information regarding the use of non-participating providers.

Frequently Asked Questions
You can see any licensed provider in the U.S. who can be paid by Medicare and who is wiling to accept the plan's terms and conditions of payment. You will not be locked into a network of providers. However, a provider may at any time decide that he or she does not want to accept the Today's Options plan. If this happens, you will need to find another provider who will accept your plan.

Then why should physicians and hospitals participate?

N C H S - N A M C S / N H A M C S - Frequently Asked Questio...
NAMCS participation is important because without one physician's participation, neither that physician nor others similar to that physician are represented in the national description of office-based patient care. Physicians are randomly chosen to represent not only themselves, but thousands of other physicians in the same geographic region and medical specialty. The same justification applies to the hospitals that participate in the NHAMCS.
