A PPO is a type of arrangement
between health care providers
(doctors, hospitals and others) and
an insurance company or third-party
administrator to provide customers
with health care services at
discounted rates. Customers
with access to the PPO pay lower
fees by choosing providers within
the PPO network. Customers
also have the flexibility to select
"out of network" providers and pay
higher fees for the services they
obtain.
The TransChoice® Plus group
hospital indemnity insurance that
CASA has arranged for its members
includes the MultiPlan PPO.
MultiPlan is the nation's oldest and
largest PPO. TransChoice Plus
also offers the ProCare Rx PPO for
prescription drug discounts.
