HOW THIS PLAN WORKS

The benefits of BCN Advantage HMO-POS

A point of service plan, or POS, is a type of managed care plan. It combines features of an HMO plan with a PPO plan.

Your employees won't need a referral to see a specialist, and they can live in or outside of Michigan, unlike many other HMO-style plans.

  • Your employees will pay the least when they get care from a doctor in our network. They’ll pay more when the doctor doesn’t belong to our network. 
  • Your employees have access to the largest HMO network in Michigan.
  • We provide the resources to help your employees and retirees transition to BCN Advantage, so you don't have to.
Our service area covers 69 Michigan counties, but members don't have to live in these counties. They can find doctors and other health care professionals in our BCN Advantage network throughout the Lower Pennisula.
