UMass Memorial Health medical teams work together to develop a relationship with you, coordinate your care and keep you healthy. To do this, your primary care provider (PCP) and your care team:
- Handle your regular checkups
- Provide care when you are sick
- Help coordinate your specialty medical care
- Look after your overall health
If you’re due for your regular check-up, please schedule your appointment as soon as you can, even if you feel healthy. Checkups are covered in full.
Your PCP is the provider you contact first. Your PCP is on your side, helping you when you are sick and supporting you to stay healthy. Call your PCP when you need care during normal business hours.
To find a PCP in our network, use our search tool at TuftsHealthTogether.com/UMassMemorialHealth. In addition to your PCP, you have access to obstetric and gynecologic care, and more at UMass Memorial Health. If you need to see a specialist, your PCP will give you a referral and tell you who to call.
