Plan Design
Differences between Open Network UCR Plan and the In-Network MAC Plan are reimbursement levels for Out-Of-Network providers and level of services covered.
- Open Network UCR Plan pays out of network providers based on Usual, Customary and Reasonable fees (90% UCR). Choose this plan if your provider is Out of Network. This Plan pays Basic Services at 80%.
- In Network MAC Plan reimburses out of network providers at the negotiated network provider fee. If your provider is out of network and you choose this plan, you will likely be balance billed. In Network MAC Plan, includes a higher coverage level for Basic Services (100%).
