How Do I Find a Doctor?

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan has the largest doctor and hospital network in Michigan. That means we have the most doctors, hospitals and providers who accept our plans.

When you see a doctor who’s in our network, you’ll pay less. Here’s how you can find one.

For current members

We make it easy for you to find a doctor online. 

If you already have one of our plans, sign up for an online member account. Then simply log into your account. We’ll automatically pull your plan information and show you only the doctors who accept it through our Find a Doctor tool. 

Please keep in mind: If you get health insurance through your employer, there’s a chance that you might not have access to this tool. If so, please contact your benefits manager to learn how you can search for an in-network doctor.

For those considering our plans

If you’re thinking about choosing one of our plans and aren’t yet a member, we can still help. Use the same Find a Doctor tool without signing in. Just select the plan you’re considering when you search. You’ll get more targeted results. 

If you’d like to see if your doctor accepts one of our plans before you choose it, search by the doctor’s name. You may want to try not filtering by plan type, though, so you can see all the Blue Cross plans – if any – that they take.

Remember, not all employer groups use our Find a Doctor tool. If you get your insurance through your work and you’re unable to access this tool, contact your benefits manager. 

Other things to keep in mind

Here are some more things you should know about our Find a Doctor tool:

  • We only list providers who take our plans 
  • Providers, however, don’t always let us know about changes right away. Always ask if they accept your plan before making an appointment 
  • Search results for HMO members are limited to providers in Michigan

Some HMO plans will select a primary care physician for you. If you're not sure if a primary care physician has been selected for you, just call the customer service number on the back of your Blue Cross ID card and we'll help. If you get your insurance through your employer, check with the person who manages health insurance for your business.

Because printed directories aren't frequently updated, you should make sure the doctor you choose takes your plan when you first call.

The best way to get the most current list of doctors is on bcbsm.com. Find your plan type in the following list. Then use the search tool designed especially for your plan.

Once there, you can look for a doctor by location, specialty and condition.
