Your Kaiser Permanente Point-of-Service (POS) Plan with a health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) is not just health coverage — it's a partnership in health.

You receive preventive care services at little or no cost to you, and online features let you manage most of your care around the clock.

Your benefits include:

  • a personal doctor for in-network medical care
  • freedom to visit any preferred provider or any licensed nonparticipating provider in the United States
  • no deductible to satisfy when care is in-network
  • copays or coinsurance for most covered services after meeting your deductible, when receiving care from a preferred provider or a nonparticipating provider
  • an out-of-pocket maximum that limits how much you'll spend on most covered services each year
  • no additional coinsurance needed for eligible services after the annual out-of-pocket maximum is met
  • a tax-advantaged reimbursement arrangement (HRA)* with funds contributed by your employer to help cover qualified medical expenses
