PPO stands for Preferred Provider Organization. A group of in-network medical providers contract with the insurance carrier under specified plans offered by the carrier. The providers agree to provide care at a pre-neogotiated rate per procedure. In exchange the providers expect to see patient flow from members of the plan. Most PPO plans do not require a referral to see a specialist.
