The PHCS 4500 PPO is built for people who want the clarity of fixed copays for routine care, but also need strong protection when larger medical events occur. Preventive services and telemedicine are always free, while office visits, urgent care, labs, and imaging have set copays so you know what to expect. For hospital stays, surgery, and emergency care, the plan applies coinsurance after the deductible, giving you meaningful coverage against high costs.
