Anthem Blue Cross HMO Medical Plans:
 
An HMO plan’s primary objective is to offer you and your dependents quality coverage at a lower cost. If you select the Anthem HMO, you must choose a primary care physician (PCP) and medical group who will then coordinate your care through the carrier’s HMO network of physicians and hospitals, resulting in cost savings for you. Kaiser’s network is a unique model as the insurance company employs hospitals, doctors, and nurses which members would receive all treatment from, except in an emergency. This “closed” system offers high quality care and benefits at a low cost relative to other insurance companies. 
 
  •  To be eligible for these plans, you must reside in the Blue Cross of California HMO service area.
  • There are no deductibles and no claim forms to file.
  • You must select a PCP from Blue Cross’ pre-approved list of healthcare providers.
  • If you need specialist care, you’ll need a referral from your PCP.
  •  Each family member may choose his or her own Blue Cross HMO network PCP.
  • Non-network benefits are not covered.

Anthem Blue Cross PPO Medical Plan:
 
A PPO plan offer members a variety of medical groups and physicians to choose from. Even more so, PPO plans are designed to provide members with choice and flexibility. By enrolling in the Anthem PPO plans, you will have access to in-network and out-of-network coverage allowing you to see any provider of your choice (out-of-network care will lead to higher out-of-pocket costs).
 
  • You are not required to select a PCP.
  •  As a PPO member, you may use a PPO provider outside of the PPO plan network, but you will pay more out-of-pocket and may be responsible for filing claims. If you visit a non-network provider or health care facility, the plan will pay benefits only up to the “allowed amount,” which is based on a limited fee schedule. You will have to pay any charges above the allowed amount (in addition to your regular co-insurance
