Your Choice 3-Tier Option— A Tiered Provider Network Plan
2020 Hospital Tiering List
Your Choice is a Tufts Health Plan tiered provider network comprised of primary care providers, specialists and hospitals.
As part of our National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) accreditation and our own quality standards, we are committed to contracting only with high-performing hospitals. Every doctor and every hospital in the Your Choice network has been carefully evaluated, and every provider and hospital in the Your Choice network meets our standard for quality of care.
Because not all doctors and hospitals charge the same costs, we’ve factored in cost- efficiency in our evaluation, and we have separated Your Choice providers into three tiers. Provider groups and their primary hospital affiliation are in the same tier to reflect referral patterns that those physicians would make most often.*
Below is a list of all the hospitals in Tufts Health Plan’s network and their tiers.
In choosing a tier, members must consider how much they are willing to pay out-of- pocket for the doctor and/or hospital they prefer. If members want the most cost- effective option, they should choose a doctor or hospital from Tier 1. If the doctor or hospital is in Tier 2 or Tier 3, they have the freedom to choose, but they will pay higher out-of-pocket costs.
Members pay different levels of copayments, coinsurance, and/or deductibles depending on their plan design and the tier of the provider delivering a covered service or supply. Your plan may make changes to a provider’s tier annually. Please consult the Your Choice provider directory or visit the provider search tool at tuftshealthplan.com and click on Find a Doctor to determine the tier of providers in the Your Choice Tiered Provider Network.
*We have created the provider tiers for Your Choice at the physician group level—not on an individual provider basis. A physician’s tier does not guarantee the quality of care that members might receive from a specific physician or practice group, or a certain health outcome. Members should always speak with their physician when making decisions about where to get care.
