    Open Access Plus (OAP) Plans

    Our OAP plans offer flexibility when choosing a primary care provider (PCP).

    What is an Open Access Plus (OAP) plan?

    Open Access Plus (OAP) plans make it easy to get quality, in-network care with access to a large, national network of providers. Plus, you have the option to choose a primary care provider to coordinate your care and you don't need specialist referrals.
