You must live in the medical plan's service area to join the plan. Plans available in Pullman include the Uniform Medical Plan, Group Health Classic, and Group Health Value. For a listing of plans in other areas visit www.pebb.hca.wa.gov and select Find a Health Plan.
Uniform Medical Plan
UMP PPO is a preferred provider organization. That means you can choose your own providers. You don’t have to choose a primary care provider who acts as a “gatekeeper” to manage your care, and you don’t need to get a referral from UMP to see a specialist. You will receive the highest level of benefit and pay the lowest amount out of your pocket if you see network providers.
With choice comes responsibility! To get the most out of your benefits, you need to know what services UMP PPO covers and whether your provider is in our network.
Group Health Classic
The Classic plan offers Group Health's broadest coverage and lowest copayments for office visits and other services. What's more, there's no deductible. And office visits, including acupuncture and naturopathy, have just a $10 copay. Generic and brand-name prescriptions have a $10 and $30 copay, respectively. Plus, lab and X-rays are covered in full.
Group Health Value
If you're concerned about monthly costs, the Value plan has the lowest premium you can get. Rates are just $13 per month for individuals, $23 for individual and child, $36 for individual and spouse, and $46 for individual and family. Copayments are slightly higher than the Classic plan for office visits. However, you'll receive the same valuable services.
Monthly Rates
All medical plans have different premium rates that are deducted from each paycheck.
