Product Portfolio
Health Maintenance Organization
With Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans, members choose a primary care physician (PCP) from our network of providers and pay a fixed monthly fee. Their PCP will then oversee all health care related services, including referrals and authorizations. HMOs are ideal for employees who would like one doctor to coordinate all their medical care at predictable costs.
If you select an HMO plan, your employees can depend on basic, inpatient, and emergency services. Many plans include office visits, hospitalization, X-ray and lab services, prenatal and postnatal services, mental health services and more. Copays may vary according to plan.
Health Net HMO Plans
We know HMOs! Health Net has a variety of plan designs for businesses of all sizes. Our Full Network HMO gives you and your employees access to thousands of physicians and pharmacies across the state.
If you select an HMO plan, your employees can depend on basic, inpatient, and emergency services. Many plans include office visits, hospitalization, X-ray and lab services, prenatal and postnatal services, mental health services and more. Copays vary according to plan.
Elect Open Access (EOA) Plans
Elect Open Access (EOA) is an HMO plan with set copays, unlimited lifetime benefits, and a primary doctor to coordinate all of your care. However, an EOA also offers the flexibility of seeing any provider within Health Net's PPO provider network without needing a referral. For this added convenience, members who visit a PPO provider will have slightly higher copays per visit.
EOA products are also available with our ExcelCare Network, a subset of our full HMO network (see Tailored Network HMO plans below), available in Kern, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Francisco, Santa Clara, Stanislaus and Ventura counties. For more information on EOA plans, call your broker or Health Net representative.
Point-of-Service (POS) Plans
A POS plan combines aspects from both HMO and PPO plans, offering more freedom than a traditional HMO. Members choose a primary care physician from our network of providers, but our POS also offers limited coverage for members who choose to see an out-of-network provider.
Health Net POS is a two-tiered point-of-service plan. Members have the option to use benefits at an HMO benefit level or PPO benefit level whenever they need care. HMO benefits include primary care physician, referral to see a specialist, predictable payments and no claim paperwork. PPO benefits include the option to see any doctor or specialist in the Health Net network without a referral, payment of deductible and coinsurance and possibly filing claim forms.

Preferred Provider Organization Insurance Plans
Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plans are health care plans contracted with a network of medical providers. PPO members have the option to select one of these preferred providers and only pay their deductible and office visit copay, or select an out-of-network provider and pay a slightly higher amount. PPO members also do not need to choose a primary care physician (PCP) and do not need referrals when going to a specialist.
