HealthCare Partners Medical Group (Optum)
The older HealthCare Partners name is now used inside Optum. Ask the office which name is on your card.
- On a Medicare Advantage plan
- On many HMO plans, this group handles the referral and the approval before a visit. If the card says Optum, use the name the office confirms.
- Ask the office
- Is this doctor in HealthCare Partners Medical Group (Optum) this year?
- Which Medicare plans does this office take at this address?
- Which hospital does this office use for a planned stay?
Confirm this on Medicare.gov, with the plan, and with the doctor’s office.
