Types of HMOs
HMOs operate in a variety of forms. Most HMOs today do not fit neatly into oneform; they can have multiple divisions, each operating under a different model, orblend two or more models together.
Staff Model , physicians are salaried and have offices in HMO buildings. Inthis case, physicians are direct employees of the HMOs. This model is anexample of a closed-panel HMO, meaning that contracted physicians mayonly see HMO patients.Group Model , the HMO does not employ the physicians directly, butcontracts with a multi-specialty physician group practice. Individualphysicians are employed by the group practice, rather than by the HMO.The group practice may be established by the HMO and only serve HMOmembers ("captive group model"). Example : Kaiser PermanenteNetwork Model , an HMO will contract with any combination of groups,IPAs, and individual physicians. Since 1990, most HMOs run by managedcare organizations with other lines of business (such as PPO, POS andindemnity) use the network model.

Essentials in Choosing HMO
The HMO Itself :Contact the Department of Insurance to find out if the HMO is licensed .Contact the Department of Insurance or check the consumer complaint ratios on-line to check the HMO's consumer
complaint record.Ask your friends or family if they belong to the HMO, and whether they are happy with the services and care
provided to them.
The HMO PlanIs it affordable? How do the premiums and copayments compare to other HMOs offering similar benefits?Do the benefits match your needs? Are any services you need not covered?How does the plan treat preexisting medical conditions? (For example, even though an HMO can't exclude a
preexisting condition, it can require a higher copayment.)
The HMO Health Providers
Are the HMO providers familiar to you? Are they conveniently located? Is there a wide choice of physicians,specialists and hospitals?Are the HMO providers accepting new patients?Is your current doctor or specialist with the HMO? If so, is he or she satisfied with the HMO and planning to
continue with the HMO?Is it easy to change Primary Care Physicians?

PPO : Preferred Provider Organization.
These organizations also have contractual relationshipswith insurance companies. However, PPOs are moreloosely organized and are not as restrictive as HMOs.If you have a PPO, you can see whatever doctor youlike, but if you choose an out-of-network physician, youwill have to pay more out-of-pocket. You will not needa referral to see a specialist.PPOs cost more than HMOs, but many people choosethem because they are less restrictive. You will havemore control over your own healthcare decisions thanyou would have under an HMO.
