Medical Insurance
Anthem Blue Cross | PPO Plans
The Anthem Blue Cross Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plans allow you to direct your own care. If you receive care from a
physician who is a member of the Prudent Buyer network, a greater percentage of the entire cost will be paid by the insurance
plan. However, you are not limited to the physicians within the network and you may self-refer to specialists. If you obtain services
using a non‐network provider, please note that you will be responsible for the difference between the covered amount and the
actual charges, and you may be responsible for filing claims.
