A Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) is a type of Medicare Advantage plan that requires you to choose a primary care physician from a network of approved healthcare providers. If you need to see a specialist, you must have a referral from your primary care doctor. You must receive all routine care from plan providers.
A Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) is a type of Medicare Advantage plan that allows you to see in-network doctors or out-of-network doctors. Member cost-sharing may be higher when plan benefits are received from out of network providers.
