To maintain your good health
As an individual business owner, you face many challenges, but finding health care
coverage shouldn’t be one of them. HMSA’s Individual Business Plan -
PPP (IBP-PPP) strikes the perfect balance between the coverage you need and a cost
you can afford.
The right choice for you
HMSA’s Individual Business Plan-PPP (IBP-PPP) offers comprehensive coverage
for:
- Medical services.
- Prescription drugs.
- Vision services.
- Dental care.
Staying healthy
Under this plan, you’ll have access to HMSA Well-Being Connection, a powerful
suite of well-being capabilities that offers preventive services to help you identify
potential health problems and reduce your health risks.
Oral Health for Total Health
HMSA has a four-tiered approach to help at-risk members get proper dental care.
With Oral Health for Total Health, integrated medical and dental claims information
allows us to:
- Identify at-risk members who would benefit from our oral health
program through medical claims data and member self-enrollment.
- Educate our members who have coronary artery disease, diabetes,
or oral cancer, as well as pregnant women, about the benefits of good oral health.
- Engage in targeted intervention for select members who are not
maintaining their oral health.
- Remove financial barriers through Enhanced Dental Benefits, a program
that provides at-risk members with condition-specific services beyond their regular
dental benefits.
- No copayment for in-network providers.
- No deductible.
- Covered outside the annual maximum.
Enhanced Dental Benefits
On January 1, 2013, Enhanced Dental Benefits will be added to the Oral Health for
Total Health program. Enhanced Dental Benefits will provide additional suPPPrt for
HMSA members who have specific medical conditions at no charge with no deductible
or coinsurance for in-network services when they visit an HMSA participating provider.
If you have been diagnosed with diabetes or coronary artery disease, you are automatically
enrolled for Enhanced Dental Benefits. If you are pregnant or diagnosed with oral
cancer, you are eligible for these benefits as well, but you will need to enroll for Enhanced
Dental Benefits. For detailed information on your benefits under Oral Health for
Total Health and Enhanced Dental Benefits, simply log on to My Account at hmsa.com

an HMSA participating provider to save you money.
Financial protection
This plan is specifically designed to give you the best PPP coverage at the lowest
cost. You’ll experience:

and X-rays.

Coverage away from home
As a self-employed individual, you may do a lot of traveling. While away on business,
the last thing you want to think about is your medical coverage. As an IBP-PPP member,
whether you are on the Mainland, Neighbor Islands, or traveling worldwide, you’ll
receive the benefits of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield network of providers.
