Some managed care plans require that you get a referral from your primary care doctor prior to receiving health care services from any other physician or provider. If you do not get that referral first, plans in many instances will not pay for your care.
HMO (health management organizations) and POS (point of service) health plans generally require a referral to see a specialist.
