Wellcare PPO plans put you first every day.

Wellcare Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plans give you more coverage and benefits than Original Medicare. Plus, with a wide network of doctors, providers, specialists and hospitals, our PPO plans give you the freedom to choose the providers that work best for you. You don't even have to select a Primary Care Provider (PCP). Because, at Wellcare, we believe your health should be between you and your doctors.

When looking for a PPO plan, here are some Frequently Asked Questions and helpful answers to guide you.

What does PPO mean?

PPO stands for Preferred Provider Organization. A PPO is a network of preferred providers that includes doctors and specialists, hospitals, pharmacies and other health care services.

Do I need to pick a Primary Care Provider (PCP)?

You’re not required to choose a PCP with a PPO plan. Still, we recommend selecting one so you have a trusted provider who can help you stay on top of your health, support preventive health needs and be ready to help you faster when you need care, or aren’t feeling well.

Do I need a referral to see a specialist?

With a PPO plan, you do not need a referral to see a specialist.

What if I want to see a provider that is out-of-network?

You can choose to see a provider that is out-of-network, but you will likely pay more for your care.

What benefits do I get with a Wellcare Medicare Advantage PPO plan?

Plan benefits vary by plan and market. Call us or shop our plans to learn what's available in your area.
