Help for checking in your patient.

Health Plans, Inc. (HPI) is a Third Party Administrator (TPA) of health insurance plans.  Patients presenting cards like the samples linked below have a plan administered by HPI. That means we administer all the eligibility and claim processing for the Plan.

We partner with multiple provider networks, including United Healthcare, Cigna, EHN and Prime Health Services to give the patient the best access to care in their area. You might see other logos on the card for other payers as well. When you see an ID card with our logo and that of another payer or network, it means they are our provider network partner for that plan package.

Visit our About Us section to learn more about our history and the other services we administer.

Every provider operating system is different, so our Plan may not be found the same way in each system. To locate us in your electronic medical record/electronic health record system, you should try one of the following searches depending on what you see on the card:

  • HEALTH PLANS INC
  • HPI
  • HARVARD PILGRIM HEALTH CARE – HEALTH PLANS INC
  • UNITED HEALTH CARE – HEALTH PLANS INC
  • THE CARE NETWORK – HEALTH PLANS INC
  • HEALTH PLANS INC – EMPLOYERS HEALTH NETWORK

Some Systems let you search by PO Box or Zip Code as well. If your system allows that type of search, try these:
PO Box: 5199
Zip code: 01581

If you can't find HPI in your system, visit our Provider Resources page to learn about how to confirm benefits and eligibility online.
