Types of Insurance
* HMO:
An HMO is a Health Maintenance Organization. When you join an HMO, you will be asked to choose a primary care physician (PCP). Your PCP will take care of your routine health care needs and coordinate any necessary specialty care. Before you can see a specialist, your PCP will request an authorization for a specialty referral based on your health plan's guidelines.
If you are covered by one of our contracted HMOs, Jacinto Medical Group will conveniently take care of most paperwork, so you do not have to complete claim forms. HMOs are designed to manage the costs of medical care, which means members enjoy lower out-of-pocket expenses compared to other types medical insurance. Visits to the doctor's office, hospital charges and many other medical care expenses are often covered at 100% after a small co payment. Generally, preventive care, prescription drugs, routine physicals, lab tests, vision exams, well-baby care, and maternity visits are covered. HMO plans do not typically require you to pay an annual deductible before services are covered and usually have no lifetime maximums.
* PPO:
A PPO is a Preferred Provider Organization. When you join a PPO, you will have a choice of providers to seek care from within the PPO network. You will have a deductible and/or copay if you go to a provider within the network.
A PPO negotiates arrangements with a network of doctors, hospitals and other providers who accept lower fees from the insurer for their services. If you choose to go to a physician or hospital outside your PPO network you will have much higher out-of-pocket expenses.
If you are covered by one of our contracted PPOs, Jacinto Medical Group will bill your carrier for services rendered, so you do not have to complete claim forms.
* POS:
A point of service plan, or POS plan, is a type of managed care health insurance system. It combines characteristics of both the HMO and the PPO. Members of a POS plan do not make a choice about which system to use until the point at which the service is being used.
* Medicare:
Medicare Part B is the medical insurance portion of Medicare, which covers physician services, outpatient hospital care, and many other services typically covered under health insurance plans. Part B is financed through monthly premiums paid by enrolls and by contributions from the federal government.
If you are covered by Medicare Part B, Jacinto Medical Group will bill Medicare for services rendered, so you do not have to complete claim forms.
Jacinto Medical Group also accepts many Medicare replacement plans that cover the costs of many services not covered by Medicare part B.
