Kaiser WA HMO
Depending on where you live, a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plan may be available to you. This plan provides coverage only when you receive care from providers within the HMO network. Your Primary Care Provider (PCP) will coordinate your care to help manage costs.
How it works:
You pay the plan per-paycheck cost from your paycheck to have coverage.
- Copay: You pay a small fee at the time of service for doctor visits and prescriptions. Copays count towards your out-of-pocket maximum.
- Deductible: For care that doesn’t charge a copay, such as hospital services, you pay 100% of the costs until you meet the annual deductible.
- Coinsurance: After meeting the deductible, you and the plan share the cost of certain services, with the plan paying the majority.
- Out-of-Pocket Maximum: You’re protected by an annual limit on costs — the plan pays 100% of any further covered expenses for the rest of the year.
Keep in mind
You pay nothing for in-network preventive care — it’s covered in full.
Do you have a PCP?
With an HMO, you should select a Primary Care Provider (PCP) who will manage your care and provide referrals if you need to see a specialist.
