“I run my own business and my time is valuable. Daniel handled everything — compared the private options, explained what I was actually getting, and had me covered fast. Way better experience than trying to navigate it myself.”
How the check works: a licensed agent checks The Hospitals of Providence, and any doctors you name, against every 2026 marketplace plan filed in your county, then sends you the plans that include them and the date it was checked. It costs nothing, and you only get a call if you ask for one.

Open Enrollment for 2027 runs November 1 to January 15: choose by December 15 for coverage from January 1. CareSource is leaving Ohio’s marketplace for 2027. If your plan is from CareSource, it ends December 31, and the plan that replaces it may not include The Hospitals of Providence. A licensed agent will check the 2027 plans for you before you choose.
The Hospitals of Providence runs 4 hospitals in Texas, in El Paso, Horizon City. Whether a marketplace plan covers any one of them depends on the individual plan, not on the carrier's name, and it can change during the year. Here is what is actually knowable, and how to settle it for your own plan.

Hospitals contract with individual plans, not whole insurers, so the same insurer can sell one plan that includes The Hospitals of Providence and another that doesn’t. The answer that counts is a check of your exact plan, dated. Get my free hospital check ↑

Where The Hospitals of Providence is
4 facilities, taken from the CMS Hospital General Information file, updated 22 July 2026. Listing a hospital is not a statement about which plans contract with it — that is decided plan by plan.
| Hospital | City | County | Emergency room | CMS star rating | Type | Ownership |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Hospitals Of Providence - East Campus | El Paso | El Paso County | Yes | 2 of 5 | Acute care | For-profit |
| The Hospitals Of Providence - Memorial Campus | El Paso | El Paso County | Yes | 2 of 5 | Acute care | For-profit |
| The Hospitals Of Providence Horizon City Campus | Horizon City | El Paso County | Yes | Not rated | Acute care | For-profit |
| The Hospitals Of Providence Transmountain Campus | El Paso | El Paso County | Yes | 2 of 5 | Acute care | For-profit |
CMS star rating is the federal overall hospital quality rating, 1 to 5, from the same July 2026 CMS file. Small rural (critical access) hospitals often have too few reported measures to be rated.
Why no page can promise your plan covers The Hospitals of Providence
Hospital networks are set plan by plan and renegotiated during the year. Two plans from the same insurer, at similar prices, can differ on whether a hospital is in network. Nothing in the public CMS files records hospital contracts, so any page listing "insurers The Hospitals of Providence accepts" is describing one plan on one day, and not saying which.
What is knowable is the shape of the market: 8 insurers file 145 plans across El Paso County, and every plan filed in El Paso County for 2027 is a restricted network — EPO, HMO, POS — so out-of-network care is limited: an EPO or an HMO pays only for emergencies, and a POS pays part of an out-of-network bill.
Three checks settle it for your own plan: the insurer’s own provider directory for the exact plan name, the hospital’s billing office (ask about the plan, not the carrier), and the date you checked, because the answer can change mid-year.

How many providers each insurer lists in El Paso County
Every insurer selling marketplace plans has to publish its provider directory as a data file. The figures count the doctors, clinics and hospitals each one lists at an address in El Paso County, across the 2026 plans it filed there. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas lists the most, 9,846. UnitedHealthcare lists the fewest, 2,717.
| Insurer | Providers listed in El Paso County | Plans filed |
|---|---|---|
| Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas | 9,846 | 22 |
| Cigna Healthcare (leaving this marketplace for 2027) | 5,468 | 11 |
| Oscar Insurance Company | 4,061 | 23 |
| Ambetter from Superior HealthPlan | 3,194 | 12 |
| WellPoint | 2,924 | 21 |
| Imperial Insurance Companies, Inc. | 2,840 | 7 |
| UnitedHealthcare | 2,717 | 14 |
From each insurer’s own CMS machine-readable provider directory, downloaded September 25, 2026. A bigger number is not a promise about The Hospitals of Providence. These files are self-reported, they go stale, and one insurer’s plans do not all use the same network — which is why a licensed agent checks the exact plan against The Hospitals of Providence by hand above.
Open Enrollment 2027
Cigna is leaving Texas's marketplace for 2027, and Open Enrollment runs 1 November 2026 to 15 January 2027. If your 2026 plan is from Cigna, the plan that replaces it is a different plan with its own network. A licensed agent can check The Hospitals of Providence, and any doctors you name, against the plans filed in your county and send you the ones that include them, with the date it was checked.
Emergency care is treated differently
4 of these locations run an emergency room. Federal law requires marketplace plans to cover emergency care at in-network cost sharing even when the hospital is out of network, so an emergency visit is not the case to worry about. Planned surgery, imaging, maternity and specialist follow-up are where the network matters.
