In-Network Provider

ネットワーク内プロバイダー (nettowāku nai purobaidā)

An in-network provider is a doctor, hospital, pharmacy, or other healthcare provider that has a contract with your insurance plan to provide services at negotiated rates. Using in-network providers results in lower cost-sharing — lower copays, coinsurance, and deductibles — compared to out-of-network care. Network directories are available through insurer websites, but should be verified by calling the provider directly, as directories are not always current.

Staying in-network is one of the most effective ways to reduce healthcare costs under most US insurance plans.
