A very good explanation of the different kinds of health insurance, but I would like to add a point that should be highlighted in my opinion.
To the best of my knowledge however, unlike a PPO health insurance plan, a HMO does not provide health insurance benefits out-of-network for routine medical situations. Emergency situations such as a bad traffic accident as an example, the insured is covered as an in-network situation until such time that the patient is stabilzed and can safely moved to an in-network provider hospital.
