A. The Sagamore PPO network provides the following advantages to a member and/or dependents. • Save money when using Sagamore physicians because of receiving higher benefit levels and paying a smaller share of costs. • May still use any physician, even those outside the Sagamore Network if willing to share a larger portion of the cost for covered services and file claim forms. • There are no claim forms to file when using a Sagamore hospital or physician. • Unlike some HMO plans, members are not restricted to only Sagamore physicians. They may go to any physician or hospital of choice and still receive reasonable benefit coverage. Go back to the top.
