Health Plan Cost Sharing & Benefits
Gold Heart & Diabetes is an HMO-POS (Point-of-Service) plan. While HMO-POS plans share many features with traditional Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans, they offer greater flexibility by allowing members to access healthcare providers outside the network for certain services. Typically, a referral from your physician is required to go out of network. Additionally, there are separate deductibles for in-network and out-of-network services.
