How the Plans Work:
Compare the basic features of the available medical plans. Medical plans may differ in their costs, types of providers and facilities, referral practices and guidelines.

The value plans offer lower premiums if you are willing to pay more when you use health care services.

In most cases, you must live in the health plan's service area to join the plan. Be sure to call the plan(s) you are interested in to ask about provider availability in your county.
