• PREFERRED PROVIDER ORGANIZATION (PPO)
  
  A PPO is a network of doctors and other health care providers that offer discounted care to members of a sponsoring organization, usually an employer or union. If youre insured through a PPO, you may have the option to go to a doctor outside the network, but youll usually have to pay a larger percentage of the cost than if you used a network doctor.
