PREFERRED PROVIDER ORGANIZATIONS

What Is A PPO?

Employees and their dependents are given the opportunity to utilize physicians and hospitals who have agreed to join networks which are called Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs). The plan member may choose to use a PPO provider or a non-PPO provider. However, when the plan member chooses to see a PPO provider, the Plan will normally pay benefits at a higher level. A directory of PPO providers will be made available to the plan member at no cost through the claims processing office or the employer's benefit office. The phone number to call for PPO information can be found on the back of the member's identification card.
