how you figured out that your doctors were covered?

I have a couple family members I want to help through this, and that's the big question. I haven't been on the website since the first week, but at that point I couldn't see lists of providers, which is the big question remaining.

That's GREAT! I registered, but couldn't access the site. napi21 Oct 2013 #1
I didn't even go to the website, but live in a blue state. We have a good state website for info. freshwest Oct 2013 #8
