Yes. Look at the in/out network for your high deductible plan. None of the providers I use on a traditional plan are considered as in network for the same employers high deductible/hsa plan. Our high deductible plan does not cover out of network. Not at all. Fun!!!

That's not the case with my plan at all. We can use all the exact same providers as the traditional plan on our high deductible/hsa plan. We just switched to the high deductible plan a few years ago (after doing the math and realizing how much better of a deal it is), but we've kept all of our same doctors and specialists as we used before.
