Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs) operate in a fee-for-service structure where healthcare providers are reimbursed for each service provided to the patient. The reimbursement is based on an agreed-upon rate between the healthcare provider and the PPO. Unlike HMOs, PPOs offer flexibility in choosing healthcare providers and tend to have larger provider networks. Medicare and Medicaid also operate in a fee-for-service structure, but they are government-funded insurance programs rather than private insurance like PPOs.
