Beginning January 1, 2000, Georgia law required insurance companies to offer a “Consumer Choice” option to members enrolling in an HMO, POS or PPO plan. This option allows members to receive services from an out-of-network provider (physician, hospital or other provider) while still being covered at an in-network level. Detailed information about these plans is included in our group proposals and our member enrollment kits.
