Choosing the Right California Health Insurance Plan
The world of health insurance can be somewhat bewildering when you do not understand the various abbreviations and terms used by insurance providers. Two common plan options are PPO and HMO plans. PPO stands for ‘Preferred Provider Organization’. These plans cost a little more than HMO plans, but have fewer rules and restrictions (it is easier to change doctors when you are on a PPO plan, for example). HMO stands for ‘Health Maintenance Organization’. HMO plans are affordable and are thus ideal for large families.
