How do you access the Anthem provider directory?

Find a doctor or provider by selecting a state and then a plan network, according to Anthem.com. Another method requires entering a username and password combination or entering an identification number and alpha prefix for your specific plan, as of 2015.

Select a state from the drop-down menu to find a doctor or hospital within your area, notes Anthem.com. After you choose a state, select a plan or network from the second drop-down menu, and then click the button labeled Select and Continue.

Otherwise, enter the username and password you selected after joining a plan, says Anthem.com. Enter the identification number on your plan ID card to access the provider directory specific to your plan. Click Continue to access the provider directory tied to your insurance policy.
