Kaiser Permanente Medical Plans
Features of an HMO Plan:
- HMO stands for “Health Maintenance Organization”
- Participants may only visit doctors that are within the HMO network
- Most healthcare services run through a primary care physician (PCP). While specialist referrals are generally required, participants can self-refer to many specialists within the HMO network.
