Our Rating: Blue Precision HMO Plans

HMO, or Health Maintenance Organization, plans usually have lower monthly premiums than PPO’s and may help keep your costs lower and more predictable. A Primary Care Physician (PCP) will coordinate your health care.

All Blue Precision HMO Plans offer the same set of essential health benefits, quality and amount of care. The Blue Precision Gold HMO Plans are the most expensive plans, but also have the most comprehensive benefits.
