Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs)
Each HMO is a self-administered, prepaid, direct-service health plan that provides services to people who live or work within the HMO’s service area. Health insurance premiums are payroll deducted on a pre-tax basis unless a request is made by the employee each year during the fall open enrollment period for after-tax status.

* Employees whose full-time equivalency (FTE) is not 1.00 should contact University Benefits and Retirement for exact premium amounts.
Most HMOs provide limited or no coverage for services outside their service areas except in the case of life or limb threatening emergencies. It is important to understand the HMO’s policy, especially if any covered dependents do not live in the service area. However, HMOs serving employees in more than one service area will provide coverage to dependents residing in a different county if it is part of the HMO’s service area.
Since HMOs emphasize early detection and treatment of illness to reduce expensive and inconvenient hospital stays, they tend to offer a range of benefits that may include preventive health care and additional services.
Primary Care Physician (PCP)
Some HMOs, but not all, may require participants to select a primary care physician, or PCP, from those in the HMO’s provider network. Be sure to check with your HMO provider first before scheduling an appointment. The PCP will authorize all medical care including referrals to specialists and hospital admissions. Participants will not be allowed to refer themselves to a specialist or hospital.
PCPs and other medical service providers will vary among HMOs. Employees may contact the HMO and request a provider list to review the contracted physicians. When selecting a plan, employees should remember that the selection should not be made because of a particular physician. If the physician decides to discontinue association with the plan or the contract is not renewed, participants will need to choose a new PCP from the provider network.
