Coverage under prefix DWN

HMO

This prefix is linked to an HMO plan. Health Maintenance Organization coverage requires members to use in-network providers and coordinate care through a designated primary care physician. Referrals are typically required for specialist visits. Claims submitted without proper referral documentation may be denied.

POS

POS (Point of Service) plans combine features of HMO and PPO coverage. Members choose a primary care physician and can get referrals to see in-network specialists at lower cost, or self-refer to out-of-network providers at higher cost. Claims should include referral information when the member uses the in-network benefit level.

HDHP

HDHP (High-Deductible Health Plan) coverage means the member has a higher deductible than traditional plans, often paired with a Health Savings Account (HSA). Most services require the member to pay out-of-pocket until the deductible is met. Preventive care is typically covered before the deductible. Submit claims normally to the payer listed above.
