[b]Medicare Managed Care[b] is a way of receiving your Medicare benefits. These types of plans involve specific groups of doctors, hospitals, and other health care providers who have agreed to provide care to Medicare beneficiaries in exchange for a fixed payment from Medicare every month. In these plans, a person must receive all of their care from the Medicare managed care plan, except for emergencies. [b]Health Maintenance Organization (HMO)[b] is a health care plan that delivers comprehensive, coordinated medical services to enrolled members on a prepaid basis. There are three basic types of HMOs: 1) Group/Staff HMO delivers services at one or more locations through a group of physicians that contracts with the HMO to provide care or through its own physicians who are employees of the HMO. 2) An Individual Practice Association (IPA) makes contractual arrangements with doctors in the community, who treat HMO members out of their own offices. 3) Network HMO contracts with two or more group practices to provide health services. Other managed care arrangements that may be available through Medicare include: HMO's with Point of Service Options (POS), Provider sponsored Organizations (PSO's), and Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO's).
