  • HMO-POS plan type. In an HMO-style Medicare Advantage plan, in-network care and primary-care referral rules generally apply. See how Medicare Advantage HMO and PPO plans differ.
  • $9,250 in-network out-of-pocket maximum. The MOOP is the annual cap on what a member pays in-network for covered Part A and Part B services. See how the Medicare Advantage MOOP works.
  • Service area = Bexar County. Medicare Advantage plans are sold by service area; moving out of the plan's service area triggers a Special Enrollment Period to switch plans. See how moving changes your Medicare options.

What H2593-029 means
