The fact that your doctor no longer accepts your insurance does not mean you have to find another doctor unless you want to. Many specialists have stopped taking insurances as they feel the reimbursement by the insurance companies is too low. All this means is if you are seeing an out of network doctor or a doctor who does not accept their insurance that you pay out of pocket then submit the claim to the insurance company for reimbursement.
Short answer to your question is yes your current doctor can continue to treat you until you find a new doctor you will just have to pay him/her up front. ]
