                                     plan would be the best fit?

           What is the best option for Georgina’s family?
           Georgina considers enrolling in the EPO plan.
           She realizes:
                 1)  The EPO plan has her providers as contracted, so there is no need to have an out‐of‐
                     network benefit
                 2)  She is saving $945 in annual premium from what she is currently paying on the Access+
                     HMO plan
                 3)  She knows exactly what she will be paying when she has her baby.
