New network option available

ODS Alaska is excited to partner with our members on their health. We are proud to offer innovative, high-quality healthcare; designed to help our members get well sooner and live well longer.

A new medical network, the ODS+Providence Alaska network, has been added as an option for ODS Alaska members.

For group coverage, the network choice will be made by the group, for individual plans, the subscriber can choose their preferred network.

In each network, members are welcome to see any licensed provider at the in-network benefit level; however their benefits will go further when they choose to see a contracted provider.

The difference between the ODS Alaska Select network and ODS+Providence Alaska network are hospital services in Anchorage. Members must seek hospital services from the network’s participating hospitals in order to receive the in-network benefit level.
