Hawaii Medical Service Association Individual
Health Plans
Catastrophic Care Plan
Has
a set annual deductible, after which it pays coinsurance
for covered expenses with participating health care providers.
You also pay a co-payment for covered services. Many preventive services are not subject
to the annual deductible. The plan also includes a broad range
of other programs. Because of the high deductible, the premium
is fairly low.
PPO Conversion Plan
Intended
for those leaving an HMSA group plan. You can choose care from the PPO network of
providers and can also use any provider of your choice outside
of the network, but at a higher cost. The plan also provides
some preventive services, a wide variety of additional programs,
and carryover from your previous group coverage.
Individual Care Plan
Provides
comprehensive coverage for a wide range of medical services,
including office visits, hospital, surgical and maternity
services, preventive care, ER, diagnostic tests, and more.
Individual Business Plan
Provided for the individual who is self-employed. Choose between an HMO or PPO option.
Student Plan 19
Intended
for Hawaii residents who are 19 to 24 years of age. Services
covered include office visits, hospital, surgery, and diagnostic
tests. It also includes a group term life and accidental
death and dismemberment policy.
50 Plus
Targets those who are
50 to 64 and who have been covered by HMSA group membership
for over 2 years. This is an HMO/Health Maintenance Organization
plan with an exceptionally broad range of coverage, including
dental and vision. Each member chooses a primary care physician
who will manage your medical care through the large network
of health providers. The plan also includes “Away From
Home Care.”
65C Plus
Furnishes extra coverage
to Medicare† recipients, over and above Medicare. When care
is from a participating provider, the plan covers your Medicare
Parts A & B deductibles, your coinsurance, and requires
only a modest co-payment for office visits.
Senior Connection
Also supplemental
coverage for Medicare expenses, but you are free to choose
any health care provider you want. Unfortunately, there are
no more new enrollments at this time.

HMSA group plans and others.
