Why Should I Switch?
More than 300,000 Californians have decided that selecting an HMO and choosing Hill Physicians is a smart choice. Members “get more*” – a powerful combination of quality care, convenient locations, easy referrals to specialists, flexibility to self-refer for OB/GYN, mental health and vision providers in the Hill network, online communications at many practices and unique value-added services**.
In San Francisco, many people are switching to Hill because the doctors of UCSF Medical Center and UCSF Children’s Hospital are joining Hill Physicians on January 1, 2010. For many people with HMO coverage, the easiest access to the specialists of UCSF will be through a Hill Physicians primary care doctor in San Francisco or Daly City. Call your health plan and ask to switch to “Hill Physicians – San Francisco”.
