Preferred term

preferred provider organizations  

Definition

  • Doctors, hospitals and health service providers that insurance groups enter into contract with to provide services to the groups they have insured, at a discounted rate. This also allows the insurer to specify the tests and referrals that they will cover, thus controlling outlays, limiting medical dominance and restricting access to services by the insured (health maintenance organizations; managed care).. [Source: The Sage Dictionary of Health and Society; Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOS)]
