Medical PPO
Need help choosing a medical plan option?
Our medical plan, administered by OhioHealthy, allows you to access quality healthcare and provide comprehensive coverage.
The OhioHealthy PPO has:
- Higher premiums than the OhioHealthy HDHP+HSA
- A lower deductible than the OhioHealthy HDHP+HSA (which means the plan pays benefits sooner)
- Predetermined amounts (copays) to pay for doctors’ office visits, urgent care and certain prescriptions — even if you have not met your deductible (copays do not count toward your deductible, but do count toward your out-of-pocket maximum)
By choosing in-network providers or specialists, you’ll keep more dollars in your pocket.
