Depending on residency, there may be several Medicare Advantage plans to choose from including HMO, POS,
PPO and PFFS plans.
- MedicareComplete® plans are coordinated care Medicare Advantage plans also known as Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans. HMO plans have a network of local doctors and hospitals.
- MedicareComplete® Plus plans are Health Maintenance Organization plans that offer a Point-of-Service (POS) option. POS plans give members the flexibility to go out of the network to receive some health care services.
- MedicareComplete Choice® plans are Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plans. PPO plans provide access to a network of local doctors and hospitals but also allow the flexibility to use physicians or hospitals outside the network.
