Guide to U.S. HMOs & PPOs
2025 Edition
This 37th edition of Guide to U.S. HMOs & PPOs profiles nearly 900 managed care organizations in the United States. It lists current, comprehensive information for HMO, PPO, POS, and Vision & Dental Plans. Comprehensive coverage—from state listings to consolidations in the health insurance industry—is the cornerstone of this new edition.
