Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) Plans
HMO means “Health Maintenance Organization.” HMO plans offer a wide range of healthcare services through a network of providers who agree to supply services to members. With an HMO you’ll likely have coverage for a broader range of preventive healthcare services than you would through another type of plan. As a member of an HMO, you’ll be required to choose a primary care physician (PCP). Your PCP will take care of most of your healthcare needs. Before you can see a specialist, you’ll need to obtain a referral from your PCP.
Though there are many variations, HMO plans typically enable members to have lower out-of-pocket healthcare expenses.
Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) Plans
A Preferred Provider Organization or PPO is also a network of healthcare providers who provide its members with multiple choices regarding healthcare and healthcare providers(doctors, specialists, hospitals etc). PPOs do not restrict patients to receiving care in-network. It’s optional to designate a PCP
Point of Service (POS) Plans
A point-of-service plan (POS) is a type of managed care plan that is a hybrid of HMO and PPO plans. Like an HMO, participants designate an in-network physician to be their primary care provider. But like a PPO, patients may go outside of the provider network for health care services. When patients venture out of the network, they’ll have to pay most of the cost or higher out of pocket expenses, unless the primary care provider has made a referral to the out-of-network provider. Then the medical plan will pick up the tab.
Health Savings Account (HSA) Plans
A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-advantaged account to help people save for medical expenses that high-deductible health plans don’t cover. An HSA, owned by an employee, can be funded by the employee and the employer. The contributions are invested over time and can be used to pay for qualified medical expenses.Account balances are rolled over from year to year.
