For many years, Best Doctors® has been linking plan members who are seriously ill with world renowned medical specialists through a variety of services designed to ensure the best care.
Ask the Expert,™ a confidential service, was recently added free of charge to Best Doctors. You can take advantage of this new, expert resource for basic questions about your health conditions and treatment options.
Rather than searching through online information that can be confusing and unreliable, get straight answers from physicians who are medical experts in their field.
To use Ask the Expert, just call Best Doctors and speak to a member advocate. Member advocates are registered nurses who will discuss your health concerns with you and identify the Best Doctors specialist who is best suited to answer your questions. Best Doctors has a global network of 50,000 specialists from which to choose.
You'll normally get your answers within two or three business days, depending on the nature of your questions. You will receive your answers in the form of a written report emailed directly to you.
How to get started:
If you have basic questions about your health condition and options for treatment, call Best Doctors at 1-877-419-BEST (2378).
