Coverage under prefix GKJ

POS

POS coverage under this prefix operates on a tiered system. Tier 1 (in-network with referral) provides the highest coverage. Tier 2 (in-network without referral) provides moderate coverage. Tier 3 (out-of-network) provides the lowest coverage. Verify which tier applies before submitting the claim.

PPO

Under this PPO prefix, members are covered for both in-network and out-of-network care. The plan pays a higher percentage of allowed charges when members use participating providers. No gatekeeper or primary care referral is required. Verify the member's specific benefits for cost-sharing details.

HDHP

HDHP coverage under this prefix means the member carries a higher annual deductible in exchange for lower monthly premiums. Claims are processed normally but the member's cost-sharing will be higher than standard plans until the deductible is met. Preventive services are typically the exception and are covered at no cost to the member.
