What type of providers may be part of narrow network plans?

Narrow network plans are designed to control costs while maintaining a quality standard of care. In these plans, members typically have a more limited selection of providers compared to broad network plans.

The correct choice indicates that only providers contracted with the member's Primary Care Physician (PCP) are involved. This means the member is primarily directed to seek care from specific providers who have agreed to contract terms that the insurance company has negotiated, ensuring the members receive coordinated and potentially lower-cost care. By limiting the network to certain contracted providers, narrow network plans can offer lower premiums and out-of-pocket costs, while facilitating a more streamlined healthcare experience through coordinated care.

Other options would imply a broader or different approach to provider selection that doesn't align with the framework of narrow network plans, which focus specifically on contracted relationships with selected providers to maintain cost effectiveness.
