Healthcare in the Foothills
One of the biggest considerations when moving to the mountains is how and where to find healthcare. Unfortunately, there is no major hospital or urgent care in the foothills. Most people go “down the hill” for major health concerns, while taking care of primary health needs with local doctors, dentists, optometrists, physical therapists, orthopedists, and more.
The first step is to find out where your insurance is accepted. Many local doctors’ offices accept various different insurance providers. One office may take your insurance while another may not - it’s best to call around and find the right service for your insurance and needs. Many insurance carriers also have a website that will show you doctors in your area.
Another option for healthcare besides going to a office in the mountains or in the city is to find a mobile service either over the phone or someone who will travel to your house. Ask your insurance provider if you have coverage for such a service.
