UnitedHealthcare (UHC) is adding new Primary Advantage PPO plans effective July 1, 2019.

The new Primary Advantage plans offer some outstanding features:

Primary Advantage Prospects

These plans are great for millennials who are not heavy utilizers, but want to go to a PCP for a regular checkup or an occasional cold; clients can have $0 PCP copay or can utilize a virtual visit for convenience, also with $0 copay; they also get a low Tier 1 Rx copay.
These also work for any member if a catastrophic illness arises, because these plans still have the security of a richer benefit with a Gold or Platinum plan design.

Quote and Sell Choice Simplified Package

Choice Simplified IV is the package offering these two new Primary Advantage PPO plan designs on both Select Plus and Core.
The only PPO plan package that IV does not offer is the $0 deductible Platinum plan. Other than that, ALL PPO Select Plus and Core plan designs are available in Choice Simplified IV.

Let’s Talk Networks

These two Primary Advantage PPO plan designs are offered on both the Select Plus Full Network and Core Narrow Network.
The “advantage” wording is not to be mistaken with UHC’s HMO Advantage network for California groups. The naming is an outcome of this plan design being a viable national product successfully selling in several states outside of California.
