Illinois Health Insurance Information
Family or Individual
(HMO, PPO, POS or Major Medical Coverage)
Individual or family health insurance can provide the important protection
needed in the event of illness and for regular preventive care. Using the
strength and experience of our health insurance markets, The O'Neal
Insurance Group can offer affordable HMO, PPO, POS, and Major Medical
Health Insurance policy coverages throughout Illinois, with a focus on the
Chicago area.
Health insurance plans that allow you the most choices in doctors and
hospitals also tend to cost more than plans that limit choices. Individual and
family health insurance plans that help to manage the care you receive, such
as PPO and POS plans, usually cost you less, but you must give up some
freedom of choice.

HMO Health Insurance Policy Overview - Illinois
Subscribers to an HMO receive medical services from participating physicians,
clinics and hospitals. You choose a primary care physician (PCP) from a list of
participating doctors from where you live in Illinois. That doctor is used for typical
circumstances such as annual exams and usual health issues. If you need to see
a specialist, be hospitalized, or have lab or X-ray work, your doctor will refer you to
a provider or facility within the HMO system. Your doctor must give authorization
for those services to be covered by your HMO. In other words, you must see HMO
approved physicians and use HMO approved facilities or pay the entire cost of the
visit yourself.

Similar to Point-of Service (POS) and PPO's, HMO's have made arrangements for
lower fees with a network of health care providers and give their policyholders a
financial incentive to stay within that network.

You may have to pay some portion of the cost (co-payment) for each office or
hospital visit, such as $20 - $30 per doctor visit, regardless of what the services
cost. Also, some services such as emergency room, mental health and chemical
dependency services, may carry additional costs in an Illinois HMO health
maintenance plan.

PPO Health Insurance Policy Overview - Illinois
You can see any health care professional in the network any time you choose to
make an appointment. You don't need referrals for specialists or other services as
you do in an HMO. You can see doctors or specialists outside your PPO network,
however, your portion of the costs will be higher.

You may have to pay some portion of the cost (co-payment) for each office or
hospital visit, such as $20 - $30 per doctor visit, regardless of what the services
cost. Also, some services such as emergency room, mental health and chemical
dependency services, may carry additional costs in an Illinois PPO health

POS Health Insurance Policy Overview - Illinois
Less restrictive than an HMO or PPO, a (POS) or Point of Service plan lets you
see any licensed health care professional for anything covered by the insurance.
Care you receive from out-of-plan health care professionals is reimbursed, but
you must pay an often times much higher co-payment or deductible amount.
While you may choose to see a physician outside the network, if you don't receive
permission from your (PCP) primary care physician, you're likely to end up
submitting the bills yourself and receiving only a small reimbursement...if any.

Costs that exceed your deductible are covered by a co-insurance plan in which
you and the insurance company share the cost for services covered by the policy.

Also, some services such as emergency room, mental health and chemical
dependency services, may carry additional costs in an Illinois POS health insurance
plan.

Major medical health insurance provides benefits up to a high limit for most types
of medical expenses incurred, subject to a deductible. Once you meet the
deductible, our Illinois Major Medical Insurance plans pay a percentage of what is
considered the "Usual and Customary" charge for covered services. The
insurance company generally pays 80% of the Usual and Customary costs and
you pay the other 20%, which is known as co-insurance. If the insurance company
charges more than the Usual and Customary rates, you will need to pay both the
co-insurance and the difference.
With Illinois Major Medical Insurance plans you can choose your doctor and any
hospital for your medical services. You or your doctor send the bill to the insurance
company, which pays part of it. Usually, you have a deductible such as $250 or
more to pay each year before the insurer starts paying. The plan will pay for
charges such as medical tests and prescriptions as well as from doctors and
hospitals.
Major medical insurance coverages offer more choice of doctors (including
specialists, such as cardiologists and surgeons), hospitals, and other health care
providers than managed care plans, such as HMO, PPO, and POS. Illinois Major
Medical Insurance may not pay for some preventive care, such as check-ups, and is
usually a more expensive health insurance coverage than utilizing an Illinois HMO,
PPO, or POS plan.
