PPO Plan Clause Samples
A PPO Plan clause defines the terms and conditions under which a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) health insurance plan operates within an agreement. It typically outlines the network of healthcare providers that participants can access at reduced rates, while also allowing the flexibility to seek care outside the network at higher out-of-pocket costs. This clause ensures that participants understand their coverage options, cost-sharing responsibilities, and the benefits of using in-network providers, ultimately providing clarity and structure to healthcare access and expenses under the plan.
