One way of reducing your health care insurance costs is to use a Preferred Provider Organizations(PPOs). A PPO health insurance plan will cost you less than a traditional fee for service health insurance plan but you have to only see doctors that are on the "preferred" providers list.

You can go out-of-network to see a doctor but it will cost you more. A larger percentage of the total cost will paid by you depending on your health insurance policy. 

The important things to remember about Preferred Provider Organizations is

  • You get more bang for your buck if you stay within the network
  • Going outside the network will cost you more.
  • You should make sure that your primary care doctor refers you to specialists that are in the network.
