Wait, I'm confused. Is it a PPO or a point-of-service plan? They both allow out-of-network care, right? I need to review my notes on the different types of health plans.

Okay, I've got this. The key is that it's a hybrid form of HMO that reimburses at a specified percentage for out-of-network care. That sounds like a point-of-service plan to me.
