Medical Insurance

        Point Loma Credit Union offers you the choice of 2 medical HMO plan options through Kaiser Permanente. Kaiser utilizes an integrated managed care
        approach where most services such as office visits, diagnostic x-ray, lab and pharmacy services can be found at each facility. Under either of these
        plans, all of your care must be directed through a Kaiser provider. You will receive benefits only if you use the Kaiser doctors, clinics and hospitals. For a
        complete listing of covered services, please refer to the enclosed carrier Summary of Benefit Coverage documents (SBCs) and/or benefit summaries for
        more detailed benefit information.
