Finding a pediatric specialist who is in-network and has an opening in the next two months inside a California HMO is not a Google search. It's a phone maze with no map. The Finder does it for you.

The problem

Your child needs a specialist. Here are your options.

You called the insurance list. Half the numbers are wrong. The ones that answer aren't taking new patients. The ones who are in-network often have a 12-month wait. This isn't bad luck. It's how California HMO specialist access works.

1
Get on the insurance waitlist
It's free and your insurance accepts the result. But the wait is 12 to 24 months. Your child will not be seen this year.
12–24 mo
2
Pay out of pocket for a private evaluation
Skips the wait, but your insurance may not accept the result, and getting them to reimburse it is its own fight.
$4k–$15k

What everyone is trying to do and almost nobody knows how to do. The directories are outdated by design.

Not a list of names to start calling. One pediatric specialist, confirmed before we hand them to you.

Delivered within 15 business days of receiving your insurance PDFs.
Full refund if we can't find anyone.
In-network

Covered by your specific California HMO, so your insurance pays and won't contest the result.

Actually accepting

Verified to be taking new patients, not just listed in an outdated directory.

Available

An opening within the next 2 months, confirmed at the time we introduce you.

Connected

We introduce you to the specialist directly, via email.

With next steps

Exactly what to do the moment you have the name, including getting the referral to insurance before the opening closes.

Guaranteed

Full refund if we can't find anyone within the window.

🗓
You don't lose anything by trying.
If you're already on a provider waitlist, keep that appointment. If we find a match faster, great. If we can't within 15 business days, you get a full refund and you haven't lost your place in line. You don't lose time. You don't lose money.
How it works

Five steps. One name at the end.

1
Qualify

Take the questionnaire. It confirms your plan type, your location, and the specialist you need. If you qualify, you continue. If you don't, we tell you honestly and point you to a better resource.

2
Verify your insurance information

Upload a photo of your insurance card. This confirms what you entered is accurate before we go any further.

3
Pay

We review your intake and send follow-up questions within 1 to 2 business days. Once we give you the go-ahead, you pay the full fee. By that point we are confident we can help. If we come back empty-handed, you get a full refund.

4
Get your insurance PDF

We ask you to call your insurance and request a PDF of in-network providers in your area. They are required to provide it. Once you send it to us, the 15-day clock starts.

5
Receive your specialist

Within 15 business days we deliver one verified specialist: in-network, available within 2 months. We introduce you directly and give you the exact next steps to move fast before the opening closes.

Is this the right service for me?

The Finder works for…

California HMO members seeking a pediatric psychologist, psychiatrist, or developmental pediatrician
Parents who have already tried the insurance directory and hit dead ends
Parents who cannot afford to spend weeks on hold while their child waits
Parents whose child has been referred by their pediatrician but can't locate an in-network provider with an opening
Currently not covered

California HMO plans only.

The Finder does not cover Kaiser or PPO plans. ERISA employer-sponsored plans are fine. Not sure which plan type you have? The questionnaire will tell you, and if you don't qualify, you won't be charged.

On Kaiser? It's a closed system that needs a different approach. The Kaiser Adult ADHD Navigation course covers it.
What parents say

From families we've already helped.

Our son has been very challenging over the past couple of years, and we were put on an 18-month waitlist to be seen. The stress at home was unbelievable, trying to keep him on task and getting anything done. We were about to pay $5700 out of pocket for an evaluation, and we did not know whether insurance would cover it or if the in-network doctors would accept the results. Thank goodness Lucy found an in-network evaluator who could see him so quickly! The stress level at home has plummeted, and school is now easier for him. Complaints from teachers have turned to compliments, and he no longer hates school. His confidence has increased.

Bay Area · California HMO

We were constantly being called in to see the school principal for our daughter's class disruptions and schoolwork challenges. This was the third time in two years that she had been suspended from school. We were at our wits' end. Lucy found someone in-network within a week who had an opening two weeks later. We only paid the copay for the evaluator. Our daughter was diagnosed with both ADHD and ODD. She's on treatment and is doing so much better. She's calmer and happier, and the arguments and fights at home have stopped.

Honest about it

What we don't do.

The boundaries, up front, so there are no surprises.

×

We don't book the appointment. The specialist needs your child's insurance and personal information directly, which we do not collect or hold.

×

We don't guarantee a diagnosis or any particular outcome after the appointment.

×

We don't cover Kaiser or PPO plans. California HMO plans only, including ERISA employer-sponsored ones.

×

We're not doctors or attorneys. This is a specialist-location service, not medical or legal advice.

×

We guarantee the specialist has availability at the time we introduce you. Securing the opening is on you, and you need to move fast. If you wait, we can't guarantee it stays open.

The guarantee

No verified match in 15 business days? Full refund.

If we cannot find a verified in-network specialist with an opening within 2 months, delivered within 15 business days of receiving your insurance PDFs, you receive a full refund. If you don't qualify after manual review, you're refunded in full. No questions asked.

Common questions

You probably want to know…

The directory only tells you who is listed as in-network. It doesn't tell you who is actually accepting new patients, who has an opening in the next two months, or whose phone number even works. Half the list is wrong or out of date. We verify that the specialist is in-network and has real availability before we hand you a name.
