Alignment PPO Plan Information for In-Network and Out-of-Network Providers

Medicare Advantage PPO plans allow members to receive services from in-network providers and from out-of-network providers that participate in Medicare and agree to accept the plan. Like commercial PPO plans, providers do not have to be contracted with the Alignment Health Plan Medicare Advantage PPO plans to see Alignment PPO members.

Out-of-Network (OON) providers will receive payment from Alignment Health Plan if the services are Medicare covered benefits and are medically necessary.

Alignment pays in-network providers at the contracted rate and out-of-network providers according to the most current Medicare Fee Schedule (less member co-payments or co-insurances which vary by plan).
