yes, select ur zipcode and find doctors around your area. obvious ga BCBS network lo unna docs lits vastundi, select any PCP and call for appointment. co-pay ante its your out of pocket doctor fees. generally oka $20 ala untundi per visit.

website lo valla in network PCP list ostadi after that see his/her reviews on zocdoc and google and distance from your place. Vallaki phone chesi appointment tisuko. Visit ki copay untadi that you need to pay inspite of insurance which are part of doctor fees.

precertification is required only if the doc/hospital is out of network not required for in network except if the doctor does some complex procedure(usually costly) which will need preauth/certification from insurance company
