What Is EPO?

The one-minute explanation of epo — no jargon.

EPO: Exclusive Provider Organization.

In Plain English

Like a PPO without out-of-network coverage (except emergencies) and usually no referrals needed. A middle ground: more freedom than an HMO, lower cost than a PPO. Check the network carefully: EPO savings disappear fast if your must-have doctor sits outside it.
