ODS Preferred Provider (PPO)

A PPO, or Preferred Provider Organization, contracts with hospitals to secure preferred rates for you and your covered family members. You can decide to visit a PPO hospital any time medical care is needed. Should you choose a non-PPO hospital, a lower level of benefit may apply. When you choose a PPO hospital, you will receive quality medical care and the highest level of benefits. ODS contracts with several PPO networks to provide more physician choices and geographic coverage.
