What Does PCP Stand For In Health Insurance? 
As others have noted PCP stands for Primary Care Physician . When using a health program that has PCP 's as part of the plan , it is known as a gatekeeper plan . What that means is when you seek medical care or advice you first go through your PCP to direct you to services beyond what they do . Usually a plan with PCPs does not allow for self direction when it comes to specialist services .
