3 Medicare Plan Types to Choose
Medicare Advantage was created to give beneficiaries an alternative. HMO and PPO plans remain the most popular, but Medicare has created seven types of private health plans that offer more flexibility to carriers. These 3 plan types can be found in Morris County:
| Plan Type | Description |
|---|---|
| HMO | Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) members usually receive services through the plan’s local network of providers. Referrals are typically required to see a specialist and other providers. However, plans allow out-of-network care for emergencies and out-of-area dialysis. Prescription drug coverage is often included in HMO plans, and many plans include some coverage for dental, vison, and hearing. |
| PPO | Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) members can usually use in-network and out-of-network providers for care, including hospitalization. However, visits to non-network providers could cost significantly more. PPO plans often include prescription drug coverage and other benefits, and referrals are typically not required for specialist visits. |
| HMO-POS | An HMO-POS (point-of-sale) plan offers the same features as an HMO plan. There is however one major difference. HMO-POS plans allow members to access healthcare providers outside of the plan's network to receive some or all of their services. In most cases, to go out of the plan's network a member will need to get a referral from their physician. Plus, there are separate deductibles for in-network and out-of-network services. |
| SNP |
Special Needs Plans (SNPs) are highly specialized and you must be qualified to join. For this reason, All Medicare organizes Medicare Advantage Special Needs plans for Morris County, New Jersey residents in their own directory. |

Some beneficiaries may also qualify to join a Medicare Part D plan, also known as a PDP. New Jersey Part D plans can be used with Original Medicare or Medicare Advantage plans that do not include Part D benefits.
