Medical Plan Comparisons

Understanding HMOs and PPOs

Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) provide healthcare through a network of doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare providers. With an HMO plan, you must access covered services through a network of physicians and facilities as directed by your Primary Care Physician (PCP), except for emergencies. LAwell provides coverage where most City employees live; to enroll, a member must reside/work within the region served by the HMO.

Health coverage with an HMO plan is typically restricted to a specific distance from a home or work address. As City employees, your health coverage options discussed in this guide are available to City of Los Angeles work addresses. If you select HMO coverage and you reside outside of City of Los Angeles limits, be sure that you and your dependents are able to receive PCP services in or near your area of residence or that you are capable of and willing to travel into the Los Angeles area each time you seek care. To review PCP availability in other areas, review the “Finding Network Providers” section of the provider you are interested in.

Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs) are nationwide networks of doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare providers that have agreed to offer quality medical care and services at discounted rates. Members may access services both within and outside of a network. They can use in-network providers for a higher level of reimbursed coverage, or go to a licensed out-of-network provider and receive a lower level of reimbursed coverage.

The following table highlights some differences between the City’s HMO and PPO healthcare options.

	Kaiser Permanente HMO	Anthem Plan
	Kaiser Permanente HMO	Narrow Network (Select HMO) Full Network (CACare HMO)	Vivity (LA & Orange Counties HMO)	PPO
In-network care	You may visit any Kaiser Permanente facility; a primary care physician is recommended but not required.	You designate a primary care physician; you must see this physician first when you need specialty care.		You may visit a network provider of your choice; no primary care physician or specialist referrals required.
Out-of-network care	Not covered unless you need care for a serious medical emergency outside of your HMO’s network service area.			You may visit any licensed provider you choose, and no primary care physician or specialist referrals are required. However, you will receive a lower level of benefits for out-of-network care.
