County Health Plan PPO
The County Health Plan PPO is a preferred provider organization (PPO). A PPO is a medical plan that offers you a choice between an in-network group of providers who offer their services at discounted rates and out-of-network providers without discounted rates. Under a PPO plan, you may choose the level of benefits you receive based on the providers you use when you receive care.
- Most in-network doctor and specialist office visits are available at a $20 copay and most in-network preventative services, such as well baby/child visits (up to age 18), immunizations, routine physicals, mammograms, and routine preventative screenings are covered at no cost.
- Other in-network services are covered at 90% after the deductible ($300 per individual or $900 per family) is met and copay.
