Purpose
The purpose of Ohio Medicaid’s Managed Care Organizations (MCO) Health Plan Comparison is to help you select the health plan best suited to your needs. The
Health Plan Comparison provides insights into the benefits all MCOs must offer. It also lists value-added services unique to each MCO. As you consider your
choice, take advantage of this guide and other resources available to you through the Ohio Medicaid Consumer Hotline.
The benefits detailed in this document are subject to change throughout the year. We encourage you to check with Ohio Medicaid’s MCOs to locate the most
recent information. You can find additional information in the appendix.
How can you choose a health plan?
